Actually the Petronas towers in Tawain are the tallest building in the world right now. Sears is the second.Originally posted by Matt 26z
Sears Tower will still be the tallest building in the world if you don't include antenna's or any decorations on top.
They should have made it bigger than the Sears Tower in those terms.
That huge spiral thing and antenna is a waste.~ loryn@loryntaylor . com ~

petronis will only be the tallest (if you don't include towers, in which case, the canadian national tower in TO is the worlds tallest structure) for another few months, Taipei 101 is nearing completion and will be the tallest at 508 meters (1800+ feet)Originally posted by Loryn-Adult.com

the cool thing about the WTC design isn't the tower, but every year on 9/11 at the exact times the planes struck the towers, the way the WTC complex is set up, a "wedge of light" will pass through the courtyard at the exact time each tower was struck, this only happens on sept 11th of every year
amazing conceptOxeo - Serious Hosting For Serious Webmasters. iCQ:135.887013Comment

and some other building in 2086 will be taller then that, has no bearing on the conversation at handOriginally posted by Loryn-Adult.com
The Freedom Towers, when completed in 2009, will be the tallest building in the world.

Agreed.. I saw all of the original designs that were released awhile back.. I liked those much more, they were both artistic yet practical, all had a lot of office space.. this one looks more like an abstract landmark.Originally posted by RATBOY
Is that it too? It doesn't look the same. Kinda looks like a cross between a tricked out Muslim Temple and the Space Needle.Adult SEO Partners - Full service Adult SEO Agency serving some of the biggest names in the industry.Comment

yes I'm aware of that, was just throwing that in since a lot of people tend to think towers should qualify when considering tallest buildings. you should check out the link to Liebskinds site, his concept is insane, using the wall from the original WTC tower that's still standing as a backdrop to the memorial.Originally posted by Loryn-Adult.com

I think the fact a taller building will be built later is a fucking given.
And I think it does, ASS. We are talking about the new building being built in replace of the WTC, called the Freedom Towers!!!~ loryn@loryntaylor . com ~

i agree, i thought they should have rebuilt the same towers, just made them bigger as a way of saying fuck you. The twin towers were pretty much the definition of manhattan skyline...Originally posted by BlueFly
