BUT if you measure from the right side of image which is south and 6th street, the measurement is 3.25' more. (at the PDF resolution I scaled at I could be off by a couple inches but still). Total height from 6th street should be 872.75ish?

Interesting. 873 feet (rounded up from 872 feet 3/4 inches) would make it taller than Charlotte's tallest. Theirs is 871 feet. I'd be real interested in seeing the rest of the elevations that show all 4 sides of the building.
Here's the breakdown on where we would rank with this one:
We'd be passing Oklahoma City, Denver, Minneapolis, Detroit, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Mobile, Miami, Boston, Pittsburgh, and Jersey City with this one, and Charlotte if it indeed is 872 feet 3/4 inches tall.
Only Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and New York would have taller buildings in the US.
A few caveats, Miami has several towers planned that would be taller than this, even several supertalls. Denver also has a 74-story tower planned that is stated as being at least 800 feet. Jersey City also has several tall towers planned. One 79-story tower and even 95-story tower that is assumed will be at least 1,000 feet.
