List of tallest buildings in Edmonton

List of tallest buildings in Edmonton

This is a list of the tallest buildings in Edmonton, the capital city of the province of Alberta in Canada.

None of Edmonton's tallest buildings are among the tallest in Canada, and are generally much shorter than the tallest buildings in the rival city of Calgary. This is not because of insufficient economic activity in Edmonton, however. Because of the presence of low-flying aircraft taking off and landing at the Edmonton City Centre Airport, the Canadian government (Transport Canada) limits the height of towers in the city to under 150 m.

What it lacks in height, Edmonton compensates for with numbers. As of 2008, Edmonton had 235 completed high-rise buildings, with 8 more under construction, 1 under reconstruction, another 6 approved for construction and 43 more proposed.
