Singapore is a highly urbanised country with over 10,000[1] completed high-rises, the majority located in the Downtown Core, its central business district (CBD).[2] In the CBD, there are over 100 skyscrapers.[3] The Guoco Tower currently holds the title of the tallest building in Singapore. It stands at, exempted from the height restriction of in the CBD. A supertall tower will be built at the current AXA Tower site in the future, standing at .
Singapore's history of skyscrapers began with the 1939 completion of the 17-storey Cathay Building.[4] The 70adj=onNaNadj=on structure was, at the time of its completion, the tallest building in Southeast Asia; it was superseded by the 87adj=onNaNadj=on Asia Insurance Building in 1954, which remained the tallest in Singapore for more than a decade. Singapore went through a major building boom in the 1970s and 1980s that resulted from the city's rapid industrialisation. During this time OUB Centre (present-day One Raffles Place) became the tallest building in the city-state; the 280m (920feet) structure was also the tallest building in the world outside of North America from its 1986 completion until 1989.[5] The skyscraper-building boom continued during the 1990s and 2000s, with 30 skyscrapers at least 140abbr=onNaNabbr=on tall, many of them residential towers, constructed from 1990 through 2008.
Since 2000, there has been a sharp increase in the number of skyscrapers under construction in the city area, particularly in the Marina Bay district. One project completed in Marina Centre is the Marina Bay Financial Centre, which includes 3 office towers offering 3000000square feet of office space, 2 residential developments offering 649 apartments and a 176000order=flipNaNorder=flip retail mall, named Marina Bay Link Mall.[6] There are also several new developments in the city's shopping hub, Orchard Road. The Orchard Residences is a 218m (715feet), 52-floor tower built in conjunction with ION Orchard, a shopping centre just beside Orchard MRT station.[7] In addition, the 245m (804feet) Ocean Financial Centre, a 43-floor skyscraper, is built in Raffles Place.[8] With the Jurong Lake District envisioned as Singapore's second CBD, more skyscrapers are shaping the skyline there as well. The JTC Summit, a 142m (466feet) office tower built in 2000, currently stands as the tallest building outside the Central Region of the country.

A. ^ The UIC Building, completed in 1973, tied the height of Meritus Mandarin Singapore Tower Two. The city therefore had two tallest buildings until the completion of the United Overseas Bank Plaza Two in 1974.
B. ^ The United Overseas Bank Plaza One, completed in 1992, tied the height of the Overseas Union Bank Centre. The city therefore had two tallest buildings until the completion of Republic Plaza in 1995, which also tied the height of the two older structures. From 1995 to 2016, Singapore had three tallest buildings until Guoco Tower was completed.
C. ^ The building has since been demolished.
