Okay so far I have found many locations where the tower can be seen from more than 30 miles. 3 in Morristown, NJ, all 31-36 miles, one in Fairfield, CT which is 42 miles, and one in Jackson, NJ from Kingda Ka, which is 45 miles.

Probably the higher altitude, or maybe the workers haven't been paid.
