10 of the Tallest Buildings in Africa, 6 are in South Africa

Africa is not normally known for her tall buildings but there has been some significant improvements in that direction. The building leading the pack is the Carlton Centre in Johannesburg, South Africa. Towering over the rest of Africa at 223 metres, completed in 1973.

Africa has some exciting projects coming up with the Al Noor Tower planned for Casablanca, Morroco. The developers say the  Al Noor Tower is a project to boost the economy of the area. The tower will measure an eye-popping 540 metres and will be 114 floors. The project will easily dwarf London’s famous Shard.

There are more buildings on the books likely to be taller than the Calrton Centre like “The One” in Nairobi, Kenya and Ghana’s Hope City. At 270 meter and 75-story building the Hope City will pip the current tallest.
