Currently, the tallest building in Taipei is the 101–story Taipei 101, which rises 508 metres (1,667 ft) and was completed in 2004. Taipei 101 was the world's tallest building from 2004 to 2010. Now, it is still the tallest building in Taiwan, Asia's 6th tallest building and the world's 10th tallest building.
There are currently several buildings over 200 m under construction in Taipei, including the Taipei Twin Towers towers A and B, which are under planning and will reach 360 metres (1,181 ft) and 280 metres (919 ft) respectively, and the Taipei Sky Tower, which is under construction in Xinyi District and will reach 280 metres (919 ft).
