Countries of the World

Which countries have the most tall buildings? This directory ranks every country in the database by its count of tall buildings, and each entry opens onto that country's skyline: its tallest building, what is under construction, and the complete list with heights and completion years.

SKYDB counts a building as a tall building from 10 floors, as a skyscraper from 100 meters (328 feet), and as a supertall from 300 meters (984 feet). The columns build on each other: every supertall is also counted as a skyscraper, and every skyscraper is also counted as a tall building. The numbers include buildings that stand today and buildings under construction, but not those that are planned, canceled, never built or since demolished.
