Potential database inconsistency: Roof heights vs crown heights.

This is a bit subjective I guess but I noticed when looking through the tallest buildings by roof in the USA that the Salesforce Tower in San Francisco is visually well behind where it should be, unless the semi open air LED cap doesn't officially count as a roof.

If that's the case I could see that but Steinway Tower in NYC is also open air yet is listed at 1,428 feet to the roof. In reality it's more like 1,257 w/o the open air crown.

One could argue Salesforce's roof is at 1,070' though, sure looks like it from the aerial photos as there is mechanical equipment on top.
