A vacant parcel of land in downtown Las Vegas ...

... Plans for the building are incomplete, but it's currently designed to have 57 stories. The Federal Aviation Administration has given a clearance to the center of up to 815 feet ...
Maybe the RJ reporter counted them?

Don't know how reliable of a source they are since they are the local paper and misspelled the name of their own city in the subhead of the story. LOL
