  • Desmond Shaw flies us to the tallest building in the western United States, the Wilshire Grand Center. The massive skyscraper stands out from the rest and anchors the downtown Los Angeles' skyline.

    US bank tower is still the tallest imo. I’m 5’10 and if I stick a chopstick in my head doesn’t make me 6’3

      Agree. Also, the US Bank building is further up a hill, closer to Bunker Hill, that makes its height measured from sea level even higher. Where do you get the best view? From the top of Mt. Everest, or from some tall building somewhere else in Nepal?

      False. You can clearly see Wilshire is taller with the spire excluded.

    To roof height its not the tallest but structurally it is with spire. Be glad when LA has skyscrapers between 1200 and 2000 feet. Wilshire Grand was supposed to be 1250 feet tall.

    Sticking a spire on top of a building,and then claiming it's the tallest building because of that is cheating. Using the same logic, a developer can build a two story building, then put a 5,280 foot tall pole on top, and then claim it's the tallest building in the world (one mile high). Nope, that doesn't work for me.
