List of tallest residential buildings
The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) defines a residential building as one where 85 percent or more of its total floor area is dedicated to residential usage.[1]
Currently, the tallest residential building in the world is Central Park Tower in a part of Midtown Manhattan, New York City, colloquially referred to as "Billionaires' Row".[2] It was topped out at a height of 472.4 metres (1,550 ft) in 2019.
As of 2024, New York City is also home to all top three tallest residential buildings in the world, while Dubai in the United Arab Emirates has five of the ten tallest.[3][4]
History and ranking criteria
[edit]Since 2000, when CTBUH started maintaining a list of tallest residential buildings, The Belcher's Tower 1 and The Belcher's Tower 2 located in Hong Kong were the first tallest residential buildings whose heights equal 221 metres (725 ft) and were completed in 2000.[5][6]
In 2001, Trump World Tower in New York City became the tallest residential building in the world, until it was surpassed in 2003 by the 21st Century Tower followed by the Q1 on the Gold Coast in 2005. In 2012, Princess Tower in Dubai became the tallest residential building in the world,[7] before being surpassed by 432 Park Avenue in New York City in 2014. The current tallest residential building, Central Park Tower, was topped out during September 2019 and completed in 2020.
The percentage of residential buildings whose height exceeds 200 metres increased from 34 percent in 2009 to 45 percent in 2010,[8] making Burj Khalifa the world's first megatall[broken anchor] building to include residential space.[9]
The CTBUH insist that a building should only be added to the official tallest list when it is (i) topped out structurally and architecturally, (ii) fully clad, and (iii) open for business, or at least partially open. This became the CTBUH official definition of a building's "completion".[10]
Tallest residential buildings
[edit]This lists ranks residential buildings that stand at least 300 metres (980 ft) tall, based on standard height measurement. This includes spires and architectural details, but does not include antenna masts. An equal sign (=) following a rank indicates the same height between two or more buildings. The "Year" column indicates the year in which a building was completed.
