I calculated with Google Earth, It's 350m tall. Small tower is 300m. But don't forget it.

I know what you mean....I prefer towers that don't lose sight of their actual "function".

A tree is beautiful because it provides shade and oxygen...no need to carve-it-up into something it isn't.

I really like Swiss Re, although Turning Torso just as very innovative while Barcelona's Torre Agbar lights up magnificently at night.

Are you kidding? This is not about nationalism, it's about the BEST tower in Europe. Do you really find that beautiful?!!

Anyway, these are the best ones:
1. Turning Torso
2. Chassagne et Alicante

3. Messeturm

This is CBX, which were quoted several times (right hand of the pic):
