[edit] Standard height measurement listing
- Note: currently, this list is ranked by the tip of the entire structure; two notable oddities are Tower of the Americas whose height is often noted as 622 feet (190 m) — with its antenna included, it is 750 feet (229 m), and Renaissance Tower whose height to the roof is 710 feet (216 m) — with its antenna included, it is 886 feet (270 m). One Shell Plaza in Houston would be 1000 feet if its antennas was included. For a discussion on how to present the lists, see the article's talk page.
