After mulling it over a bit, I took one of the aerial shots of the build and super imposed a the scaled blue print. Sure enough, my suspicions were correct. I emailed this picture off to the framer and he said he'll take measurements.
Matt said that he measured the wall lengths against the blueprint and everything was correct, but agreed that something was off. A few hours later he discovered the issue. The wall marked in white was labeled as a 22' wall on the blueprint, but if you took ruler to paper, it should measure 26'. Some time in the revision process, the numerical measurement of that wall was not corrected and resulted in an incorrect corner stake. Had it not been caught, this would have reduced space in the basement and first floor, resulting in a loss of a closet in the mudroom and a change of plans for the basement. Luckily concrete wasn't poured in the walls and a fix was possible.
