The Taipei 101 in China is the tallest building in the world. The Sears tower is the tallest if you include the antenna. The tallest structure in the world is a huge radio tower in North Dakota.

The question of the tallest is debatable, but Wikipedia lists the following:
Taipei 101 has 101 stories above ground (hence the name) and five underground. The building holds the records for: Ground to structural top: 509 m (1,671 ft), a record formerly held by the Petronas Twin Towers at 452 m (1,483 ft). Ground to roof: 449m (1,474 ft). Formerly held by the Sears Tower 442 m (1,451 ft). For more info. go to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taipei_101
