Architectural top vs honest height
Iconic Tower is marketed at 393.8m. The highest floor a person can stand on - the highest occupied floor - is at 380m. The gap between those two numbers is 13.8m of structure that no occupant reaches.
That gap is the vanity height. As a percentage of architectural top, it is the Vanity Ratio: 3.5%.
In the Honest 100,Iconic Tower ranks #33 by occupied height.
Vanity context
A Vanity Ratio of 3.5% places Iconic Tower in the near-zero vanity category. Almost all of its architectural height is occupiable - a rare outcome in tall building design.
