It's still a little hard to read, but I think the number is 408 feet 3 inches. So, that gives us a height there of 1,000 feet 9 inches. BUT, the height on the elevation is only to the main roof and there is some height above that. I think the highest point of the crown/mechanical roof appears to be around 50 feet above the main roof. So I'm thinking the height is likely close to 1,050 feet.
Just nitpicking here - HAIF listed the overall height at 1,474' MSL. Therefore, this would be closer to 1,066' tall. If so, I believe it would be the tallest building in the U.S. outside of New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco (Salesforce Tower would have only a 4' advantage on this baby).
