    Historically the UK, like much of Europe, has never really been on board with the super skyscraper boom culture that was popular in America for a time, which is now mostly limited to the Arabian gulf states, China, and some parts of Asia.
    Our tallest and most iconic building The Shard, is a foreign investment in the city of London by Qatar that viewed it as a safe pair of hands for their money. There is no money, ambition, or need, for taller towers in the UK than what we currently have.
    Towers 500m+ in other parts of the world are an impressive statement of intent, but many are I think being shown to be vanity projects with height far exceeding purpose and demand.

      Thanks for your comment. Yeah i think Europe skyscrapers somehow needs to be more connected with reality. So they are smaller but they face more challenge regarding to planing laws, economic viability, etc. Actually im not so interested in skyscrapers from the middle east. It feels like they are playing Sim City with cheat codes ;)

      Currently the building height race, mainly in Middle East and Asia looks more than a infantile dick measuring contest, I'm glad that Europe is not taking part.

      @@Nogothoughts Yeah but it’s purpose is not for habitation but for telecommunications, therefore it doesn’t count as a building. Also a Building is meant to have floors/stories. There are so many towers that have walls like the Milad Tower, KL Tower, CN Tower, Ostankino Tower etc, but they’re not called buildings because they don’t have floors. Despite all 3 of these towers have an observation deck unlike the Emley Moor Mast

      @@Yasin_2312 😂 No, not really. The Shard comes from a completely different era than the Commerzbank Tower. So architecturally not really comparable. In addition, Millennium Tower 1 will soon be built in Frankfurt and it looks 10 times better than this ugly Shard, which doesn't fit into the cityscape of London at all. The most beautiful tower in London is still the "Gherkin". This Tower is really timelessly beautiful.
