I meant to get back to you earlier. Yes, it's seems to be working out well so far. Australia is doing awesome! That's nearly one entry/1 million residents. There are only 5 countries with a higher ratio: the United Arab Emirates, Singapore, Panama, Qatar, and Bahrain.

You have South korean cities categorized as follows : Seoul, Incheon, Busan, Hwaseng, Daegu and ULSAN(6 cities).

Gaeyang district in Incheon is just less than 7km from Yangchen distrctict in Seoul.(That means Inchoeon is less than 7km from Seoul)
When I take the subway train No.1 at Bupyeong station in Incheon, I will get to Guro station in Seoul within 25 minites.(This train is not speed train.)

I don't know how far is between Washington and Baltimore, Toronto and Hamilton. But I don't think that Incheon is far away from Seoul at all.
Incheon was called the gateway of Seoul once(even though the citizens of Incheon don't like it)

Anyway, I like your category.
But You surely didn't Seoul combine any other cities here unlike Tokyo.

Thanks!

This map shows Incheon(Pink), next to Seoul(actually there is Bucheon city between them.) (Map from wiki)

shanghai: 42 buildings over 200m are T/O and completed, respectively. sources: SSC skyscraper thread [shanghai] says 42 and CTBUH 41 but they are missing one.

Isn't the tallest building in Dubai 818m?, because I see that you put 636m as the highest building, the Burj Khalifa is the tallest of Dubai, and the world also.

I was hoping to hear from you, and you didn't disappoint!

The listing for Shenzhen was very helpful. I'm a little surprised how relatively little activity there is in Chicago. They will surely drop down the list and it's not only Shenzhen that is gaining ground. There's a lot happening in Tokyo as well. Shenzhen hasn't caught Chicago quite yet, but Guangzhou bumps Houston down to #9!

Thanks for your input and help. You're the best! I'll update the lists.
