In regards to the second one, the building is still under construction, so I'd wait to see what's going on there.
But that 985 ft height is believed to be the main roof, and not the mechanical penthouse bulkhead, which would be at 1,011 ft.
I went back to check, and nothing has changed. That mechanical bulkhead is what's considered the 79th floor of the building. (The top floor of 58 is actually the 78th floor). We do know that there have been two versions of the crown.
As far as the Spiral goes, it's that one that is more in question.
