I don’t think they should pollute moscow skyline with some building that will be considered ugly in the next ten years and spend billions doing it just to show the world that they can build one, how about putting that money towards military or renovation of current buildings.

Well, there are many things which are not obvious…

“3 billion people are living on $2 a day” is not very good argument.

If this argument was valid, there would be NO CULTURE on Earth whatsoever, because there are always somebody in need.

Besides, 90%+ of Russians were living on less than $1 a day back in 90s (I’m one of them). Average salary in 90-95 was about $10 A MONTH.

@architekt:
We don’t need really them. Buildings go as high as the egos of those who pay for them.

@John Smith:
What “sudden”? Remember some the old 7 wonders of the world? Building tall has always been a part of construction.

@Salcedo:

What the hell do the Petrona Towers have to do with this? There are plenty of buildings in a construction phase already taller than the Petrona Towers.. And as far as “a step ahead” I don’t know what that means. Structurally they have nothing innovative, size-wise nothing innovative either.. I don’t know what you meant really..

And why do we need big buildings anyway?
