Since the birth of the skyscraper, people have had an insatiable obsession with “building tall.” Skyscrapers were not only an efficient use of land, but quickly became a symbol of power and influence, putting cities and countries on the map in big ways. Chicago is known as the birthplace of the skyscraper, but New York City dominated the race for the sky starting in the early 1900’s. It wasn’t until 1999 that the title “World’s Tallest Building” left the USA and was taken by Asia when the Petronas Towers took the title.

This poster beautifully captures the tallest buildings since the turn of the 20th century. From stone to steel to concrete to glass. Skyscrapers have come a long way. Make this an eye-popping conversation piece in any room in your home or office!
