HARDminute #10: Skyscrapers

This is a topic where there are many disagreements. Future Top Tens will have the tallest structures, tallest statues, tallest free-standing structures, etc. many groups all want to claim bragging rights so I will circulate opportunites for many to claim them! And more opportunites for debate. This is a start. "Skyscrapers" are livable buildings higher than 152 meters, or 500 feet. Source is "De top 10 van alles" Russell Lash.
