I suspect that the author just took the 12.5-foot floor height (could that be ceiling height?), and multiplied it by 26 floors to come up with the 325-foot figure.

I'd leave this at 380 feet unless and until there's official confirmation that it's only 325 feet. But what do I know?
Yes. You're right. Looks like the author is wrong and the height is 380 still.
