Well done Kenya, it is amazing to see such major developments, you have some amazing structures over there. I still think 11 Diagonal Street is one of the oldest buidlings in Johannesburg that is still an architectural masterpiece even today.
South Africa and Kenya are doing exceptionally well. Kenya is actually a powerhouse, it's underated. In my most honest opinion, it is even better than Nigeria.
Also consider that it doesn't have a single tenant since its completion more than 3 years ago. But that doesn't make it less of a masterpiece 'ghost house'
China is the top country in terms of skycrapers and not the west. West has been out shined by china of today. Just research on you tube top 20 china cities.

I'm all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦 but I disagree with this list of some of the buildings, it lacks proper research and is biased!. There are plenty beautiful buildings in Africa which did not make the list!.
I am Djiboutian and really appreciate all Africa, especially those are very much stepped forward like South Africa and Kenya. Kenya is a country that I really liked it during my visit several years ago.
It is pleasant to see these African projects, it is the sign of a development in movement. However, you seem to forget that Africa has a North. On closer inspection, it might surprise you (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia).

Dude it's glitz and glam, even the old mutual head quarters, RMB tower, Alice Lane and EY head quarters is enough to put a smile on your face, forget the Sandton city and Mandela square itself because they are obviously shopping centres and therefore must be excluded here. Sandton architect is an art of design dream that makes you wonder what is next?
It is great to see that a few Kenyan buildings have featured in the list. But there are a lot more that look quite beautiful as well and deserved to have been on the list.
I think the Eastgate Center was the cleverest and most original design on the list. That building is absolutely gorgeous, and it actually works with the environment. Its on my bucket list now!
i currently live in upperhill, and ngl, the buildings are becoming too much, before it was so peaceful with trees everywhere but this days it feels like we live in the CBD,
@Sherwin, you want upperhill to remain a forest?? Upperhill still has 25% vegetation cover, furthermore, the CBD has exhausted the space and it is expanding to upperhill. Nairobi is growing, population is growing the world is growing. What do I mean? The lovers of green leafy suburbs have to leave Upperhill for office space and move inwards to Ngong and the like.
As an architecture student, I must say that some of the buildings on this list shouldn’t be, and some buildings there were not listed should definitely be on the list
I was an Architecture student in 2004 with time things change Ron Wud. In Kenya most (not all) of the new modern high-rise buildings are actually designed in Kenya by Kenyan Architectural firms. Britam towers was once ranked top 10 internationally

I did not see FC Mirab tower in Nairobi, Kenya. I believe it is the most beautiful building in Africa; it's not very tall, it's just beautiful, someone can correct me; you can RUclips FCMirab tower- Nairobi.
Самое красивое здание в Африке - башня Набемба в Конго, удивительно изящная и элегантная. Здание организации африканского единства в Аддис-Абебе похоже на кастрюлю с крышкой, я вообще не стала бы включать его в этот список, тем более ставить на 1-е место.
