ReplyDeleteSorry about the deleted post. I misread something and the Canton tower in China, is in second at 600m in height and the CN tower in Toronto Canada is in third at 553m in height. Then comes the Ostankino tower in Moscow, Russia at 540m tall and finally we have the Willis tower(Sears tower) in Chicago at 527m tall. I just think I should point out, these are the worlds biggest skyscrapers, not the worlds biggest structures. There happens to be many categories on the subject of the tallest building.
