No and not by a long shot. They are building it:

and it will be 541 m tall. The burj dubai will be 636 m tall (2,087 ft). Meaning it will be 95m or 311 feet taller than the FT.

Topic Title: What's the tallest building in your city?

for someone who created the thread you sure did forget what it was about in a hurry

Sh!t yeah your right sorry. I was thinking of my previous post in which I said "Seems like it will keep the world record for some time" referring to the berj, jonks post seemed to be in reply to mine but I of course lost track of the thread topic, "your city"

Baptist Church, if you count the steeple. If not, then someone's barn.

Yep

will be this in 2012: Text

I like the design of the spire, elegant. Interesting though that nothing is planned that will be taller than the Burj Dubai, at least nothing we know about. Seems like it will keep the world record for some time!

It's an Easy-out

I consider myself to be from Mobile, so I would say the RSA Battlehouse Tower, the larges building in AL and on the gulf coast outside of Houston.

I currrently live in Tuscaloosa, so I think that would be either the RBC Centura bank bldg or Crimson Towers (a dorm for UA). I'm not really sure which. I'm only up here for school.

for many years buildings in downtown Ottawa faced a 45.7 metre (150 foot) height restriction so the Peace Tower would dominate the skyline... Originally hoping to build a 145 metre (475 foot) tower (which would have made it about 42 storeys) the city allowed it to only be 104 metres (342 feet) (29 storeys), but it still was, and remains, the tallest building in the city.

Other 'skyscrapers' in the Capital region.

i don't live in the city but in a small settlement not far from haifa. the tallest building here is an observation tower in the elementary school. i have no idea of it's height but i'd estimate about 10 stories.

the tallest building in haifa is the IEC Tower (the electric company).
