That really isn't that likely when looking at the first information coming out for the proposals to the HDRC was showing just short of 400'. It would only make sense that an additional 2 floors would get it over 400'.
Then you throw in that the Joske bulding is currently 65'. Subtract that from the 410' figure and it leaves you with 345' (for the remainder 27 floors). Lets just say that the 6th floor is 20' (probably high) and that there appears to be a 20-25' crown on the building that bring s the remaining floors to 26 for the remaining 300'.
I hope I am wrong, but when looking at the information that I have seen so far it looks like the total height of the building will be in the 350' to 375' range, not 410'.
I would rather be wrong, but there is nothing wrong with a +350' addition to downtown.
