The top 100 tallest buildings in the world. Some buildings are not listed as they are in map areas which are in low-resolution. You can see the logic. Map is low-res. So, if I fake the location, no one will know unless if he/she is a local in that area. Finally, if it is even correct, would you be able to admire or see the building?

This placemark also covers only buildings, not towers. Buildings are habitable and usable. Towers on the other hand are inhabitable and unusable i.e. only for communications, viewing. Usable means it can be used as an apartment, office of hotel.

Duplicate buildings/placemarks removed.

Very good work. Congratulations.

How about improves it given some figures of each building (or even some related web page link)?

Regards,

You got the Conde Nast Building in completely the wrong place. I congratulate you on your hard work anyway. The placemark for the Conde Nast Building is here.
