Blaze inspired this. The best high rise building in the world is the Patronas Towers which are connected, they are the 2nd and 3rd tallest building in the world and are located in Kuala Lampur. I have always liked the Petronas Towers. Awesome.

They are awesome, way better than that Tapei 101 crap. I'm really liking this Dubai structure though, it's looking good.
 
The first one looks very cool, I like that Asian style. The second one is just weird, I don't like it at all.
 
www.skyscraperpage.com - Very interesting siteThe Petronas Towers will soon be much lower also, there's some very larger building currently under construction (4 larger than Petronas I believe) and some other massive ones proposed.This one's massive:

Abraj Al Bait Towers (Under construction)This is maybe my favorite:

Burj Al Arab at NightBurj Al ArabIt's amazing, completed obviously.This is a 200 story proposed structure, very ugly and I personally dislike it:

Finally, here's one more proposed structure, this would be built in Chicago at a heght of 124 floors, it will be the tallest building in the United States:

Fordham Spire
 
They are cool but the connecting is odd. It makes it unique though. Which is cool I guess but it's still odd.
 
No way will that Chicago building be approved, look at the model, everything is white and shiny, thats not the Chicago I visit.

All very cool, interesting towers.I'm pretty sure that construction is beginning soon on that tower in Chicago also.
 
The one I posted is really enormous, maybe you can't tell from the picture. It's going to be taller than Petronas, and look how much larger the footprint is. It's 1.5 million sq. meters of floorspace.
 
Oh the skywalk, well it's necesary. Better to have that then have to take an elevator to the ground floor, walk to the other tower and then take an elevator back up to just move over a hundred feet horizontally.
