Post the tallest skyscraper of your country

***VelesHomais*** · April 21st, 2009, 04:40 PM

Post the tallest skyscraper / building (not a chimney, TV Tower or anything like that) of your country. Only one building per country. It has to be topped out (reached final height). Then we can make a list of all European countries with the highest shown as first.

I think it's terrible (I'm 20), and should be demolish as quick as its possible. Despite history it's just ugly and crappy, every new scyscraper is located to fit with PKiN, this destroing plane of center of Warsaw. It's takes to many space on the ground, becouse it's not only tower. But most of Poles like it. I think only becouse they usted to this bulding, it was the tallest, biggest one from always

***VelesHomais*** · April 22nd, 2009, 03:25 AM

Erhan, include height and number of floors, please.

***VelesHomais*** · April 22nd, 2009, 03:35 AM

Tallest we have in Belarus for now is "Hotel Belarus" built in 1987. I don't know what the height in meters is.

Tallest in Ukraine is Continental, it's topped out but not entirely finished yet, will be opened this year. Height is 141.2 m, 35 floors. Office tower.

Tallest in Slovakia is NBS, office tower, 33 floors, 111 meters high

The tallest we have in Bosnia is Sarajevo's Avaz Twist Tower - 177 meters, 38 floors high:
