Cross-source consensus
Corroborated — terrain and structure agree (2/2 sources)

No heliport precedent — typically the binding gate for rooftop and hospital pads.
Obstruction clearance
High obstacle within 0.5 nm — conflicts with the expanded footprint and 8:1 approach

Measured against FAA pad geometry and federal FATO sizing (EB-105). A dimensional pre-screen — site-level validation required, and independent of the underwriting risk score.

Surface elevation
GROUND 172ftROOFTOP 348ftbldg ~177ftFAA FILED 334ft

The FAA record places this pad at 334 ft. USGS terrain plus the building put the actual rooftop at 348 ft — a +14 ft difference the federal record doesn’t carry.

eVTOL footprint
FATO 100 ft reqHTLOF 62 ft

The 62 ft pad is 38 ft short of the 100 ft an eVTOL FATO requires (measured).

Obstructions, exact FATO geometry, surface condition, and downwash exposure require a physical Ground Truth capture — not shown above as measured. A field verification completes the record and writes the measured truth to this facility’s authority.
