  1. highest above seal level would be interesting as well, as this would give Sears another 600ft. Which building sticks the highest into our atmosphere.

  3.  @CheeseMiser  skyscrapers are not gas stations. they are one of a kind, unique. Apples and Oranges comparison, childishly pathetic. Does the Empire State Building change it's name merely because one company renting floor space left and was replaced by another? No. Also, most of history thus far called it the Sears tower, and thus will forever be called Sears when discussing history. The records will always show it as Sears tower. You can't erase all history of the tower from existence, without committing the most heinous act of violence in known History. And attempting to rewrite history doesn't make you right, it just makes you pathetic. It will never not be called the Sears tower. you'll have to do better than that.

  11.  @richh650  No research required. I do not acknowledge illogical standards created by private people. Any criteria I define is equally valid as theirs, and my criteria disqualifies spires. spires don't count.

  12. covered wrap around porches are amazing, and not eh enclosed type.

  13.  @mesamom62  have you ever considered something like slatted "awnings". Solid structure made of slotted material that block sun, but at other angles allows wind and rain through? Curious what you think of something like that in your situation.

  15.  @CheeseMiser  only wrong according to you. Factually I'm right, as multiple cases prove I'm right when spires were altered, or even ceased to be spires. So their own criteria is invalid, validating my criteria. Spires don't count.

  19. I get antennae vs spire, but neither should count towards height. It's BS to include them.

  23.  @vez3834  it would be interesting, from a scientific what-if point of view. but I agree, totally impractical.

  24.  @stephenspackman5573  "Highest into (out of?) the atmosphere and furthest from the centre are not the same thing, though." WTF are you talking about? center of What exactly? you're just spouting off nonsense with zero context. you're adding stuff to a discussion without telling anyone what the F you are going on about. "And how ‘high’ is a building on the moon going to be?" nice Strawman fallacy.

  25.  @stephenspackman5573  I did not bring up the center of the Earth, learn to read. you do know the earth is neither a sphere, nor uniform in shape, right. the average sea level is far more uniform and consistent than the non-water surface of the earth, right? " I'm not intending to imply you're a flat earther here." wow, you are batshit crazy off your rocker.

  27.  @felonyx5123  doesn't work like that, otherwise you could add about another 600ft to the Sears tower.

  29. concrete has a theoretical height limit that would blow people's minds. it would dwarf anything standing today.

  30.  @AnHebrewChild  there are actually some videos on it with the specific values discussed here on Youtube. An the videos give examples of massive structures humans actually considered building that would make the world's tallest skyscraper look like a toothpick. I believe one of these concept structures was envisioned for Tokyo. Search the, Shimizu Mega-City Pyramid

  33.  @TheWizardGamez  that's a good idea. we can't save and preserve everything. that would be a good way to save it.
