Wuhan Greenland Center Fail


The Wuhan Greenland Center was supposed to be 2,087 ft tall (636 m), surpassing the Shanghai Tower in height, which would make it the 2nd tallest building in the world.  However, construction was halted in August 2017 when it reached a height of about 1500 feet due to airspace restrictions because of the expansion of the Wuhan Tianhe International Airport.  The building has since been redesigned to be 1,562 ft in height (476 m).  It will still be the 15th tallest building in the world.
