The height counts on these towers are a bit off. The first tower's height is not 478. The height submitted to multiple agencies accounts for the roof height NGVD, derived from construction permits. But in actuality height reaches the crown, which is more than 20 feet tall just from observation.
For instance, construction permits call Cipriani Residences 908 FT. Is this true? No. 908 FT is the NGVD roof height, which is still wrong because we measure height above ground-not from the sea level. Meaning the roof height is 898 FT.
But actual above ground elevation show 925 for Cipriani, which is a 17 FT increase. Just for fun, a 17 FT increase for Viceroy Residences would mean a final height of 495 FT.
Unfortunately, elevations don't exist but It wont hurt to shoot the City of Miami an email because I'm certain they're higher than written.
