Thanks to WJfox for the picture taken from this thread: http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=166995

Presumably London over a very large area still functions wit a tower less than half the height of the moscow one.

I'm curious, is there any benefit from these really tall towers?

[Zaqattaq]

Well I am pretty sure the moscow one is more of a soviet tower of ego

info on it

- In August 2000 a fire in the top of the tower seriously damaged its structure and the local authorities were even considering to demolish it as security measure.
- Tower is currenly being modernised and strengtned after the fire that took place on 2000, expected completion of the works is before 2004.
- In 1994 TV Ostankino wanted to increase the transmission capacity of the tower to 40 channels. Increasing the height of the tower to 1,845 ft (561 m) was not possible because of a lack of financing.
- Ostankino TV & BC Tower transmits the signals of 11 television stations, 12 radio-broadcasting stations and 17 satellite TV programs.
- There is an restaurant called "seventh heaven" at a height of 334 meters.

[Zaqattaq]

Guiness Book of World Records 2005 and emporis.com say that CN Tower is the worlds tallest structure at 553.33m.

[beyond 1000]

Skybean is correct.

The CN Tower is the World's Tallest Freestanding Structure eclipsing everything that is not a cable-supported tv mast. It is true that Ostankino was to be increased after the fire but there is no evidence that it was. Ostankino is 540m.

The CN Tower itself will be surpassed by Burj Dubai, which will be at least 800m tall and is presently under construction.

Does this count?

Its the KVLY-TV Broadcast Tower located halfway between Fargo and Grand Forks, North Dakota. At 2,063 ft (628.8 m) its the tallest structure in the world.

[Obelixx]

No. It is a pure guyed construction. Make for guyed constructions a seperate thread.

Concerning towers: we should distinguish between towers insulated against griund (Radio Tower Berlin, Blosenberg Tower Beromünster, Longwave transmitter Junglinster) and grounded towers (the other towers).

This way of distinguishing must be also done at guyed masts.

Do not forget: location of Nordschwarzwaldturm is Schömberg-Langenbrand
