EUA muito atrás da China nos arranha-céus

By Ninian Carter

February 10, 2025 - Nova Iorque é muitas vezes vista como a capital mundial dos
arranha-céus, mas na realidade fica em terceiro lugar atrás de duas
áreas da China – o país com mais edifícios altos no mundo.

New York, often perceived as the skyscraper capital of the world, is currently home to 319 buildings that reach at least 150 metres tall.

However, in reality, New York lies in third place. Shenzhen in China is second with 440 skyscrapers – 91 of which were built in the last three years.

But according to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, Hong Kong is a clear winner with 564 skyscrapers crammed into 1,104 square kilometres.

In fact, China is leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of the world, with a staggering 3,253 skyscrapers spread over 40 cities.

The U.S. is in a distant second place with a total of 807 skyscrapers across 14 cities. Then the UAE is third with 335 buildings in three cities.
