Nearing the end of January and the 09 award winners and nominees should be announced soon. However, there has been absolutely no news in this issue. Emporis may have stopped recieving the award. This is not the Cable Ace Awaed.
Emporis should give the award to a randomly-selected skyscraper and it's very likely to be this one: image hosted on flickr

Red Apple William Beaver House Millenium Tower in the top 10... seems last year was a bad year.

Looks like there'll be no Emporis Skyscraper Award winners for buildings finished in 2011.

I don't know anyone who takes that award serious. Typically an award which is meant to stage the organizer, not the recipient

Burj Khalifa
