DISCUSS: Best Twin Towers - Page 2

Krazy · June 16th, 2006, 04:03 PM

Petronas would be on top obviously...

Here's 245m tall Fattan Marine Towers in Dubai.... completed this year

ZZ-II · June 16th, 2006, 04:51 PM

Of course the World Trade Center. It were the best skyscrapers in the world in my opinion, only they were my favourite skyscrapers.

Lisbon Twin Towers

I find the WTC being a sympathy vote. Before they were attacked most people didn't really like them much as they were for the most part, just boxes.

malec · June 17th, 2006, 12:29 PM

So are the emirates towers counted? Because they're not exactly twins since one is higher than the other.

DG · June 17th, 2006, 07:06 PM

^ yes they are

Yes, they're counted. They might not be the same height, but they are clearly still "twins".

In that case, I nominate 1 and 2 IFC

Methinks we have a winner :p

If the IFC counts as twins but how about The World Financial Centre in NY. But they're more quadriplets

Honestly, I don't consider both as twins because the design of 1-IFC is different from 2-IFC. The Lippo Centre is still the best to represent the best twin tower from HK
