How to use "Skyscraper" in context?
When people think of tall buildings, the first thing that likely comes to mind are the concrete and steel behemoths that dot the skylines of major metropolitan areas around the world. Buildings that soar into the sky, often becoming an iconic part of a city's skyline. But what is a skyscraper, exactly? A skyscraper is a building that reaches a height of more than 300 feet (91 meters). And while this definition technically excludes some highly iconic examples of skyscrapers, like the Willis Tower in Chicago and the Taipei 101 in Taiwan, it is still the most common definition used when describing tall building design.
