The Burj Khalifa has been classified as Megatall. Tallest buildings in the world. This list of tallest buildings in the world ranks skyscrapers by height. Only buildings with continuously occupiable floors are included, thus non-building structures, including towers, are not included. ( See List of tallest buildings and structures. ) Contents 1 Ranking criteria and alternatives 2 Tallest buildings in the world ( 350 m+ ) 3 Photo gallery 4 Alternative measurements 4.1 Height to pinnacle ( highest point ) 5 Buildings under construction 6 List by continent 7 See also 8 Notes 9 References 10 External links Ranking criteria and alternatives The international non-profit organization Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat ( CTBUH ) was formed in 1969 and announces the title of `` The World 's Tallest Building '' and sets the standards by which buildings are measured. It maintains a list of the 100 tallest completed buildings in the world. The organization currently ranks Burj Khalifa in Dubai as the tallest at 828 m ( 2,717 ft ). The CTBUH only recognizes buildings that are complete, however, and some buildings listed within these list articles are not considered complete by the CTBUH. In 1996, as a response to the dispute as to whether the Petronas Towers or the Sears Tower was taller, the council listed and ranked buildings in four categories : height to structural or architectural top ; height to floor of highest occupied floor ; height to top of roof ( removed as category in November 2009 ) ; and height to top of any part of the building. Spires are considered integral parts of the architectural design of buildings, to which changes would substantially change the appearance and design of the building, whereas antennas may be added or removed without such consequences. The Petronas Towers, with their spires, are thus ranked higher than the Willis Tower ( formerly the Sears Tower ) with its antennas, despite the Petronas Towers ' lower roofs and lower highest point. Until 1996, the world 's tallest building was defined by the height to the top of the tallest architectural element, including spires but not antennae. This led to a rivalry between the Bank of Manhattan Building and the Chrysler Building. The Bank of Manhattan Building employed only a short spire and was 282.5 m ( 927 ft ) tall and had a much higher top occupied floor ( the second category in the 1996 criteria for tallest building ). In contrast, the Chrysler Building employed a very large 38.1 m ( 125 ft ) spire secretly assembled inside the building to claim the title of world 's tallest building with a total height of 318.9 m ( 1,046 ft ), although it had a lower top occupied floor and a shorter height when both buildings ' spires were excluded. Upset by Chrysler 's victory, Shreve & Lamb, the consulting architects of the Bank of Manhattan Building, wrote a newspaper article claiming that their building was actually the tallest, since it contained the world 's highest usable floor. They pointed out that the observation deck in the Bank of Manhattan Building was nearly 30 m ( 100 ft ) above the top floor in the Chrysler Building, whose surpassing spire was strictly ornamental and inaccessible. At present, the Burj Khalifa tops the list by some margin, regardless of which criterion is applied. Tallest buildings in the world ( 350 m+ ) As of 2017, this list includes all 51 buildings ( completed and architecturally topped out ) which reach a height of 350 metres ( 1,148 ft ) or more, as assessed by their highest architectural feature. Six of the last seven buildings to have held the record as ' tallest building ' are still found in the list, with the exception being the North Tower of the original World Trade Center after its destruction in the September 11 attacks of 2001. If the twin towers were still standing today they would occupy numbers 24 and 25 on the list ( or 23 and 24 since it can be assumed One World Trade Center would have never been built ). bold Denotes building that is or was once the tallest in the world Rank Building City Country Height ( m ) Height ( ft ) Floors Built 1 Burj Khalifa Dubai United Arab Emirates 828 m 2,717 ft 163 2010 2 Shanghai Tower Shanghai China 632 m 2,073 ft 128 2015 3 Abraj Al - Bait Clock Tower Mecca Saudi Arabia 601 m 1,971 ft 120 2012 4 Ping An Finance Centre Shenzhen China 599 m 1,965 ft 115 2017 5 Lotte World Tower Seoul South Korea 554.5 m 1,819 ft 123 2016 6 One World Trade Center New York City United States 541.3 m 1,776 ft 104 2014 7 Guangzhou CTF Finance Centre Guangzhou China 530 m 1,739 ft 111 2016 8 Taipei 101 Taipei Taiwan 508 m 1,667 ft 101 2004 9 Shanghai World Financial Center Shanghai China 492 m 1,614 ft 101 2008 10 International Commerce Centre Hong Kong China 484 m 1,588 ft 118 2010 11 Changsha IFS Tower T1 Changsha China 452.1 m 1,483 ft 88 2017 12 Petronas Tower 1 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia 451.9 m 1,483 ft 88 1998 Petronas Tower 2 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia 451.9 m 1,483 ft 88 1998 14 Zifeng Tower Nanjing China 450 m 1,476 ft 89 2010 Suzhou IFS Suzhou China 450 m 1,476 ft 92 2017 16 Willis Tower ( formerly the Sears Tower ) Chicago United States 442.1 m 1,450 ft 108 1974 17 KK100 Shenzhen China 442 m 1,449 ft 100 2011 18 Guangzhou International Finance Center Guangzhou China 440 m 1,440 ft 103 2010 19 Wuhan Center Wuhan China 438 m 1,437 ft 88 2016 20 432 Park Avenue New York City United States 425.5 m 1,396 ft 88 2015 21 Marina 101 Dubai United Arab Emirates 425 m 1,394 ft 101 2015 22 Trump International Hotel and Tower Chicago United States 423.2 m 1,388 ft 98 2009 23 Jin Mao Tower Shanghai China 421 m 1,380 ft 88 1999 24 Princess Tower Dubai United Arab Emirates 414 m 1,358 ft 101 2012 25 Al Hamra Tower Kuwait City Kuwait 413 m 1,354 ft 80 2011 26 Two International Finance Centre Hong Kong China 412 m 1,352 ft 88 2003 27 23 Marina Dubai United Arab Emirates 395 m 1,296 ft 89 2012 28 China Resources Headquarters Shenzhen China 393 m 1,288 ft 67 2017 29 CITIC Plaza Guangzhou China 391 m 1,283 ft 80 1996 30 Capital Market Authority Headquarters Riyadh Saudi Arabia 385 m 1,263 ft 77 2016 31 Shun Hing Square Shenzhen China 384 m 1,260 ft 69 1996 32 Eton Place Dalian Tower 1 Dalian China 383 m 1,257 ft 81 2015 33 Logan Century Center 1 Nanning China 381.3 m 1,251 ft 82 2017 34 Burj Mohammed bin Rashid Abu Dhabi United Arab Emirates 381 m 1,251 ft 88 2014 35 Empire State Building New York City United States 381 m 1,250 ft 102 1931 36 Elite Residence Dubai United Arab Emirates 381 m 1,248 ft 87 2012 37 Central Plaza Hong Kong China 374 m 1,227 ft 78 1992 Federation Tower ( East Tower ) Moscow Russia 374 m 1,227 ft 95 2016 39 Dalian International Trade Center Dalian China 370 m 1,214 ft 86 2016 40 The Address the BLVD Dubai United Arab Emirates 368 m 1,207 ft 72 2017 41 Bank of China Tower Hong Kong China 367 m 1,205 ft 70 1990 42 Bank of America Tower New York City United States 365.8 m 1,200 ft 54 2009 43 Almas Tower Dubai United Arab Emirates 363 m 1,191 ft 68 2009 44 JW Marriott Marquis Dubai Tower 1 Dubai United Arab Emirates 355 m 1,166 ft 82 2012 JW Marriott Marquis Dubai Tower 2 Dubai United Arab Emirates 355 m 1,166 ft 82 2012 46 Emirates Office Tower Dubai United Arab Emirates 355 m 1,163 ft 54 2000 47 OKO Tower - South Tower Moscow Russia 354 m 1,160 ft 85 2015 48 The Marina Torch Dubai United Arab Emirates 352 m 1,155 ft 86 2011 49 Forum 66 Tower 2 Shenyang China 351 m 1,152 ft 68 2015 50 The Pinnacle Guangzhou China 350 m 1,150 ft 60 2012 51 Hanking Center Shenzhen China 350 m 1,148 ft 73 2017 Photo gallery Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is the world 's tallest building. Shanghai Tower in Shanghai, China, is the 2nd tallest building. The Abraj Al - Bait Towers in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, is the 3rd tallest building. Ping An Finance Centre, in Guangdong, China, is the 4th tallest building. Lotte World Tower in Seoul, South Korea, is the 5th tallest building. One World Trade Center in New York City, is the 6th tallest building and the tallest in the Western Hemisphere. CTF Finance Centre in Guangzhou, China, is the 7th tallest building. Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan, was the world 's tallest building from 2004 to 2010 ; it is now 8th. The Shanghai World Financial Center is the 9th tallest building and the 3rd tallest in China. The International Commerce Centre in Hong Kong, is currently the 10th tallest building. The Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, were the tallest buildings from 1998 to 2004, and are still the tallest twin buildings. Willis Tower, formerly Sears Tower, in Chicago, United States, was the tallest building from 1974 to 1998. New York City 's Empire State Building was the tallest building from 1931 to 1972, and is the 5th tallest building in the United States. Jin Mao Tower in Shanghai, China is the 10th tallest building in China. Alternative measurements Height to pinnacle ( highest point ) Tallest buildings by pinnacle height, including all masts, poles, antennae, etc. in 2014. This measurement disregards distinctions between architectural and non-architectural extensions, and simply measures to the highest point. This measurement is useful for air traffic obstacle determinations, and is also a wholly objective measure. However, this measurement includes extensions that are easily added, removed, and modified from a building and are independent of the overall structure. This measurement only recently came into use, when the Petronas Towers passed the Sears Tower ( now called Willis Tower ) in height. The former was considered taller because its spires were considered architectural, while the latter 's antennae were not. This led to the split of definitions, with the Sears Tower claiming the lead in this and the height - to - roof ( now highest occupied floor ) categories, and with the Petronas claiming the lead in the architectural height category. bold † Denotes building with pinnacle height higher than architectural Rank Building City Country Height Floors Built 1 Burj Khalifa † Dubai UAE 829.8 m 2,722 ft 163 2010 2 Shanghai Tower Shanghai China 632 m 2,073 ft 128 2015 3 Abraj Al - Bait Towers Mecca Saudi Arabia 601 m 1,971 ft 120 2012 4 Ping An Finance Center Shenzhen China 599 m 1,965 ft 115 2016 5 Lotte World Tower † Seoul South Korea 555.7 m 1,823 ft 123 2016 6 One World Trade Center † New York City United States 546.2 m 1,792 ft 104 2014 7 CTF Finance Centre Guangzhou China 530 m 1,739 ft 111 2016 8 Willis Tower † Chicago United States 527 m 1,729 ft 108 1974 9 Taipei 101 Taipei Taiwan 508 m 1,667 ft 101 2004 10 Shanghai World Financial Center † Shanghai China 494.3 m 1,622 ft 101 2008 11 International Commerce Centre Hong Kong China 484 m 1,588 ft 118 2010 12 John Hancock Center † Chicago United States 456.9 m 1,499 ft 100 1969 13 Changsha IFS Tower T1 Changsha China 452 m 1,483 ft 94 2017 14 Petronas Tower 1 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia 451.9 m 1,483 ft 88 1998 14 Petronas Tower 2 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia 451.9 m 1,483 ft 88 1998 16 Zifeng Tower Nanjing China 450 m 1,476 ft 89 2009 16 Suzhou IFS Suzhou China 450 m 1,476 ft 98 2017 18 Empire State Building † New York City United States 443.2 m 1,454 ft 102 1931 19 Kingkey 100 Shenzhen China 442 m 1,449 ft 100 2011 20 Guangzhou International Finance Center Guangzhou China 438.6 m 1,445 ft 103 2009 21 Wuhan Center Wuhan China 438 m 1,437 ft 88 2017 22 432 Park Avenue New York City United States 425.5 m 1,396 ft 85 2015 23 Marina 101 Dubai United Arab Emirates 425 m 1,394 ft 101 2017 24 Trump International Hotel and Tower Chicago United States 423.2 m 1,388 ft 96 2009 25 Jin Mao Tower Shanghai China 421 m 1,381 ft 88 1998 26 Princess Tower † Dubai UAE 414 m 1,358 ft 101 2012 27 Al Hamra Tower Kuwait City Kuwait 412.6 m 1,354 ft 80 2010 28 Two International Finance Centre Hong Kong China 412 m 1,352 ft 88 2003 29 China Resources Headquarters Shenzhen China 392.5 m 1,288 ft 67 2017 30 23 Marina Dubai UAE 392.4 m 1,287 ft 89 2012 31 CITIC Plaza Guangzhou China 391 m 1,283 ft 80 1997 32 Logan Century Center 1 † Nanning China 390 m 1,279 ft 82 2017 33 Capital Market Authority Headquarters Riyadh Saudi Arabia 385 m 1,263 ft 77 2017 34 Shun Hing Square Shenzhen China 384 m 1,260 ft 69 1996 35 Eton Place Dalian Tower 1 Dalian China 383.1 m 1,257 ft 81 2015 36 Burj Mohammed bin Rashid Abu Dhabi UAE 381.2 m 1,251 ft 88 2014 37 Elite Residence † Dubai UAE 381 m 1,250 ft 87 2012 38 Tuntex Sky Tower † Kaohsiung Taiwan 378 m 1,240 ft 85 1997 39 Central Plaza Hong Kong China 373.9 m 1,227 ft 78 1992 40 Federation Tower ( East Tower ) Moscow Russia 373.8 m 1,226 ft 95 2016 32 Bank of China Tower Hong Kong China 367.4 m 1,205 ft 72 1990 33 Bank of America Tower New York City United States 365.8 m 1,200 ft 54 2008 34 Almas Tower Dubai UAE 363 m 1,191 ft 68 2008 35 Aon Center † Chicago United States 362.5 m 1,189 ft 83 1973 36 SEG Plaza † Shenzhen China 355.8 m 1,167 ft 70 2000 37 Emirates Park Tower 1 Dubai UAE 355.4 m 1,166 ft 77 2010 38 Emirates Park Tower 2 Dubai UAE 355.4 m 1,166 ft 77 2010 39 First Canadian Place † Toronto Canada 355 m 1,165 ft 72 1975 40 Emirates Office Tower Dubai UAE 354.6 m 1,163 ft 56 2000 41 OKO Tower - South Tower Moscow Russia 354.1 m 1,160 ft 85 2015 42 The Marina Torch Dubai UAE 352 m 1,155 ft 86 2011 43 Forum 66 Tower 2 Shenyang China 350.6 m 1,150 ft 68 2015 44 The Pinnacle Guangzhou China 350.3 m 1,149 ft 60 2012 45 Hanking Center Shenzhen China 350 m 1,148 ft 73 2017 Buildings under construction This is a list of buildings taller than 350 metres that are currently under construction.
