Skyscraping
Published: 05-04-2015In 2009, there were 19 buildings in the world with heights above 1,000 feet (305 meters for the non-American readers). Today there are 79 such buildings, a four-fold increase in just 5 years! And if you have never been to China or the Emirates, you have missed most of them. 40% of these tallest buildings are in China, another 28% are in the U.A.E.
