No, but almost every time they've mentioned the height of the building so far they've excluded the height of the spire. If the design says "1500 ft", that could mean 1500 feet to roof + an additional 50 feet for the spire. The "actual submitted design" NYguy shows doesn't say 1,500 feet anywhere! 1,496 feet is likely not what the official paperwork says that the developer has filed with the city, just like with Nordstrom Tower (which, by the way, got a height increase from its last known roof height, not to mention an addition of a spire...)
