Worlds Tallest Buildings
March 31, 2008
Recently they announced a new skyscraper to be built in Philadelphia called American Commerce Center. It’s proposed to be built just across the street from Philadelphia’s current tallest building, the Comcast Center. The American Commerce Center boasts it will be the tallest in the Western hemisphere…because there is no one this side of the Atlantic that is proposing anything even close to what’s being built in Dubai.
Currently there are nine skyscrapers in the mist of construction that are near (or taller) to the American Commerce Center. This includes the soon to be World’s tallest, Burj Dubai, at 800+ meters tall it dwarfs just about everthing else. Though this honor looks to be short lived as they are already proposing a taller building to be built less then 10 miles away. Until then Burj Dubai is king and it’s website shows you all the reasons why it’s the biggest and the best.
