Economy 52,951 Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 What about China and Asia? cities like Hong Kong, Beijin....etc; I doubt America can compete with thoselol thats for sure But i was giving numbers for NA specifically since construction has been soft particularly in the US I actually went to Toronto this weekend and thays what got me interested in looking this up. There were cranes EVERYWHERE!!! Every street even remotely close to the city core had some condo being built or some business building and all of them large!!!

JustPokeHerFace 2,564 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I follow skyscraper growth all the time (it's the only other forum I regularly check besides GGD) Put this into perspective NY currently has 6 buildings over 300 meters (making it a supertall) 3 more currently under construction And 10 more are scheduled to be finished by 2020 Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, and Atlanta all have at least one completed 300m building Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, Seattle, Miami, and Philadelphia all have at least one 300m building proposed or under construction.
