- andsoitis 3y agoFrom Wikipedia: Modern sources currently define skyscrapers as being at least 100 meters (330 ft)[1] or 150 meters (490 ft)[2] in height, though there is no universally accepted definition, other than being very tall high-rise buildings. Historically, the term first referred to buildings with between 10 and 20 stories when these types of buildings began to be constructed in the 1880s.[3] Skyscrapers may host offices, hotels, residential spaces, and retail spaces. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyscraper https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyscraper
