Grrr why does China have the tallest buildings, America sure needs to get their head out of their shoes

alpine glen
#

not neccesarily its just that china has governement controlled skyscrapers and in the us its all capitalism, hence why the tallest buildings are sticks in central park. also why in china they are usually cooler

lusty frost
#

I don’t mind a few sticks but I want more taller and thicker skyscrapers

#

I heard they’re building another cool one rn

#

270 park ave I think

#

It’s roof height is still taller then one World Trade Center

#

It’s not enough and the process is to slow

#

I also think they banned in China from making skyscrapers taller then 300 meters? or is it 400

#

Idk

#

I’m just hoping the USA has another skyscraper boom or something, like the roaring 20s

#

The height restrictions were implemented for like safety reasons I think

#

Like in case of a fire or earthquake or something

#

Kinda sad there won't be anymore skyscrapers being built

#

China has so much potential for skyscrapers

lusty frost
#

nah they have to many of the tallest skyscrapers globally

#

like top 20 or something

#

usa doesn't have that many in that list

And there is literally 0 point

#

Yeah your right

#

But the one World Trade Center which is the tallest skyscraper in the USA looks so small compared to chinas skyscrapers as well as from the Middle East

#

The antenna is the one that’s making it one of the most tallest, it wouldn’t even be in the top 20s if it wasn’t for the antenna

#

Well the one World Trade Center is 1776 feet but the antenna is helping it get to that height, without it, it would only be 1368 feet, which is quite small

#

In fact it would be the 36th tallest building in the world, now that’s quite lame

#

If you look at the worlds tallest buildings, it’s like 50% China

#

And like 10% USA

sterile cloud
#

literally nobody gives af😭

#

Also factoring in China has like 1.4 billion people, so they will have more big cities than the US, meaning more sky scrapers.

#

And how tall a building is, is really not the US #1 priority. The US has way better things to be focusing on than tall buildings. There is literally no need and no point to build taller buildings right now.

#

Yeah I guess your right

#

But apparently china’s population is slowly decreasing while the USA is slowly increasing

#

Like very slow

sterile cloud
#

Yeah the US is increasing slowly but steadly and China's is plumiting, thats why India just became more populous than China. And India is growing extremely fast.

#

And alot of the US population growth is from illegal immigrants, and with the 2024 election that could change drastically.

#

We could be seeing millions of people leaving if this election goes wrong

#

If it goes right lol
