Taipei 101, in the Hsinyi dist., Taipei, Taiwan; also known as the Taipei Financial Center. With 101 stories and reaching 1,671 ft (509 m) high, Taipei 101 became the world's tallest building when it was topped out in 2003, surpassing the Petronas Towers; construction, which began in 1999, was completed in 2004. Designed by C. Y. Lee & Partners, the multiuse steel-and-glass skyscraper echoes a traditional Chinese pagoda with its soaring podium base, eight tiers of eight stories (a number that is a homophone for prosperous growth in Chinese), and narrow pinnacle tower and spire. A 18-ft (5.5-m), 882-ton (800-metric-ton), ball-shaped damper located near the top counteracts swaying during earthquakes and typhoons.

That record of approximately one hundred tall homes is exciting in that the tallest is approximately 60% taller than the subsequent tallest. That probable skill that still taller isn't geared up in this century, if the international huge recession maintains. many of the tall homes on the instant below shape are below 0.5 as tall, and that they are few in selection. Many very tall homes are having worry finding tenants for the top 0.5 because of the extreme dying in the international commerce center which grow to be destroyed via terrorists. Neil
