The tallest building in Singapore is Tanjong Pagar Centre. It is a pretty new building, launched just last year! Not very tall, standing at 290m but still the tallest in my country. 🙂

Thank you @JeslynL for sharing!

 

It seems the building is still under construction in your photo.  Let's see if we can get some latest shots.

Hi @YK1001, adn @JeslynL, le vostre immagini sono molto interessanti, soprattutto per chi vive in un'area dove l'edificio più alto è di 30 piani, e tutti lo guardano con ammirazione -:)

Perché non accogliete l'invito di @MarieP e non unite le vostre immagini in questo bel Topic?

Si tratta solo di un suggerimento, ovviamente.

Grazie per la condivisione

Thank you for pointing to that lovely thread, @ErmesT.

 

The main reason is I did not locate that before this thread is started.

 

After a second thought, there can be a few Tall buildings in a region, but only one Highest.

 

Thus I want to have them separate.  How do you think?

Re: Let's share the Highest Building in our region

@YK1001, for me, coming from a "contry of flat buildings" every building higher than 30 floors can be the Highest.

 

La mia idea non era di cercare il più alto, ma piuttosto di esplorare la sensazione di essere circondato da palazzi così alti.

La mia unica sensazione di questo tipo l'ho avuta a Hong Kong, ed è stata interessante.

In ogni caso, l'autore del post sei tu, perciò credo che debba essere come tu ritieni, perché ovviamente comunque Il più alto è una cosa unica.

A presto

Wow! There is no way to beat these buildings! Will throw here the tallest building in Italy:

 

The UniCredit Tower (Torre UniCredit) is a skyscraper in Milan. At 231 metres (758 ft), it is the tallest building in Italy.

My "contestant" only used to be the highest (until very recently actually).

25 storeys (~84 metres high) but has been pulled down already. It was actually rather ugly and the whole skyline of my city is without any particularly high buildings so it did not really "fit" in here. 

There are more images on Google Search. The Wikipedia article has some further info.
