Tokyo skyline
Tokyo still has no a single supertall built, the tallest building in the city is 257m, but this will be changed as some supertall projects are ongoing.

The cities listed on this page each has at least one supertall skyscraper built or proposed, guyed masts and chimneys are both not included.

Note: Some cities have a great quantity of tall buildings, but with no one stands taller than 300 meters, these sort cities are not included in this list. A good example is Frankfurt, which is sometimes regard as Manhattan of Europe with lots of skyscrapers, such city can be rarely found in Europe, but no supertall or serious proposals for supertall ever been proposed in Frankfurt, hence this kind of cities can not be found below.
