I would argue that at 630’, the Gateway Arch is the tallest in St Louis. Yes, it’s a building. It’s heated and cooled, and it has plumbing and electrical systems. Plus a tram system running to the top.
Thats the official way skyscrapers are measured. CTC has a major spire well integrated with rest of bldg. Its not just a pole stuck on top like some. Fyi you can ggle skyscraperpage for a place with lots more info.
Yes! I've found on the internet a building called 175 Park Avenue / Project Commodore, I think it's this one. In 2024 the building is "only" proposed, but construction is expected to start in 2026.
Yes I noticed that. Initially I hesitated to include the crown as the roof/main height because even if it's not really a roof, it's still more visible than a single antenna/spire. But I don't know if I made the good choice... At least the crown is not much higher than the roof so the tower in the ranking would have moved only from one place if I didn't included the crown as the main height. The difference is only about 5m/16ft. I had the same issue with the tallest tower in Cincinnati. But at least for this one, the crown completely covers the real roof, so it's even more visible than the BoA in Charlotte.
Yes, but Atlanta is the center of one of the largest urban area in the USA, about 5 million inhabitants. It's the same story for Miami or San Francisco, the city proper is not extremely huge but the urban area is.
Miami is even smaller by municipal population. In the Southeast, the two largest metros are nowhere near the top municipal populations in their subregions. Jacksonville is larger than Miami, and Charlotte, Nashville, and Memphis are larger than Atlanta proper!

That RSA Tower in Mobile, Alabama is so beautiful.
The commrade building about to take the title as tallest in New York at 1600 ft
Commrade building ?

The BofA tower in Charlotte is beautiful, but that height is the total height, not to the roof. It includes the crown.

Interesting that Atlanta takes #8 when it is the 38th most populous city in the US

NOPE! TOTALLY WRONG! COMCAST TECH CENTER PHILADELPHIA IS #3. ITS THE TALLEST OFFICE TOWER IN WESTERN HEMISPHERE OUTSIDE OF NYC AND CHICAGO.
By architectural height.
Ease back on the caffeine, friend. You're gonna have a heart attack.
