That dimension is 51.8cm.
If you used the top of the handlebar stem as the datum, the intersection of a virtual horizontal top tube with the centerline of an extended virtual seat tube would be 60cm.

Stan,
Thanks much! If I am understanding you, it sounds like you are saying that I should be looking for a farme size with a seat tube measurement of 51.8 cm and top tube 60 cm? Hmm...if that is the case, then I guess none of the options in the new frame geometry would be appropriate then. Bummer...
