Also, height allowances get approved in Austin based on the main roof height. Mechanical penthouses are exempt in every case, except when a capitol view corridor is concerned. The main roof height is, or was, 549 feet, while it topped out at 585 feet to the mechanical screen. If it did drop in height, which is possible since the recent articles on it stated it was a "49-story tower" - then it would likely still be taller than 520 feet since that's likely only the main roof height.
