Emporis and SkyscraperPage tend to list building heights, but currently the easiest place to find them is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ta...nicipality

I updated this Wikipedia page a few months ago Smile it was so outdated. I feel the WRC community could keep it updated and recent

Oh, well thanks for adding to it. I went ahead and made a few edits to it to reflect a few other proposed projects.

Maybe once the weather warms up a bit I'll slowly add a photo to each building. Others could contribute photos they have too. Edit: I added a Photo column to it, so feel free to add photos if you have any.

That list is still very out of date I think. I've used emporis for the heights anyway.

Edit: missed the other comment that another member here helped update it. Thanks random stranger!

I did spot 144/155 on the project list, I expect they should be moved to the completed buildings list.

As Charles is architecturally topped out shall we move it to completed?

Not a complete building yet though. Smile

But there are probably some others on the project list that are complete, too.

I would not be inclined to mark a building complete until at least occupancy commences?

Generally when its topped out I switch it from being marked as under construction (U/C) to topped out (T/O) and then complete once the whole building is open for occupancy
