Skyline of Columbus in January 2006 (Use cursor to identify buildings)

This list of tallest buildings in Columbus ranks skyscrapers and high-rises in the U.S. city of Columbus, Ohio by height. The tallest building in the city is the 41-story Rhodes State Office Tower, which rises 629 feet (192 m) and was completed in 1973.[1] The structure is the fifth-tallest completed building in the state,[2] and is also Ohio's tallest building that rises in the center of a city block.[1] The city's second-tallest structure is the LeVeque Tower; this 1927 Art Deco skyscraper was the first building in the state to be built on caisson foundations.[3] Of the 20 tallest buildings in Ohio, nine are located in Columbus.[4]

The history of skyscrapers in Columbus began with the completion in 1900 of 16 East Broad Street, which is regarded as the first high-rise in the city.[5][6] This structure stands 13 stories and 180 feet (55 m) in height.[5] Columbus went through an early high-rise construction boom in the 1920s, during which time the city saw the completion of the 555-foot (169 m) LeVeque Tower, which stood as the tallest structure in Columbus for 46 years. However, the pace of new high-rise construction then remained slow until 1960; starting in that year, Columbus entered into a large building boom that lasted until 1991. During that time, most of the city's tallest skyscrapers were built, including the Rhodes State Office Tower and the William Green Building.[1][7] Although no Columbus skyscraper ranks among the tallest in the United States, the city is the site of five skyscrapers at least 492 feet (150 m) high. Based on existing and under-construction buildings over 500 feet (152 m) tall, the skyline of Columbus is ranked first in Ohio, fourth in the Midwest (after Chicago, Minneapolis, and Detroit) and 19th in the country.[A] As of June 2008, there are 80 completed high-rises in the city.[8] Columbus ranks third in the state in high-rise count after Cleveland and Cincinnati, which have 124 and 120 completed high-rises respectively.[9][10]

Columbus has been the site of very little high-rise construction since the construction boom ended in 1991 with the completion of First Third Center in 1998; since then, only four skyscrapers that rank in city's 20 tallest buildings have been constructed, the tallest being the 314-foot (96 m) Miranova Condominiums.[11] The most recent high-rise development in the city was The Condominiums at North Bank Park, which was completed in 2007.[12] As of July 2008, there are no new high-rise buildings under construction in Columbus. However, there are two major high-rise reconstructions taking place in mid-2008 in the city; Eight on the Square and the Grange Mutual Companies Building are being renovated.[13][14] The largest high-rise development taking place in Columbus is Buggyworks Phase II, which is expected to rise 23 stories in height; it is the city's only building proposed for construction that is taller than 20 stories.[15]

Tallest proposed

This lists the skyscraper that is proposed for construction in Columbus and is planned to rise at least 250 feet (76 m) in height, but is not yet a completed structure. A floor count of 20 stories is used as the cutoff in place of a height of 250 feet (76 m) because the building's exact height has not yet been released by its developer. The tallest building under construction in the city, as of June 2010, is the new Nationwide Children's Hospital. This 12-story, 200-foot-tall (61 m) hospital is the second largest children's hospital in the world. It is located on the South Side, at the intersection of Parsons and Livingston.
