Genesis may just need to provide more info about tower #1's top rather than make any changes. I found this definition of a distinctive top in the Waterfront Overlay:
Quote:
(2) Except in the City Hall subdistrict, a distinctive building top is required
for a building that exceeds a height of 45 feet. Distinctive building tops include
cornices, steeped parapets, hipped roofs, mansard roofs, stepped terraces, and domes.
To the extent required to comply with the requirements of Chapter 13-1, Article
4 (Heliports and Helicopter Operations), a flat roof is permitted.
