It's 52 floors (1,046 feet), I believe.

I thought it was over 1000 feet, but wasn't entirely sure.

But only 52 floors... that's odd.  An average of 20 feet per floor?

You can't tell in the photos, but there is a spire at the top that the 1000 foot figure includes.

You are indeed correct.

Still, gets another 1k in New York and that's nice to have.

I took this about 3 weeks ago.....looking East at sunset as I exited the Lincoln Tunnel.

I think it looks much better at night than during the day.
