The world’s second-tallest building, Merdeka 118 has now rea
ched its maximum height and it’s a sight to behold, as pictures show.
Merdeka 118 topped out last month in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, with the completion of the spire at its tip making the skyscraper a staggering 2,227ft (678.9m) tall.
The 118-story building, which is set to open later in 2022, has knocked the 2,073ft(632m) high Shanghai Tower in China off its perch as t
he world’s second-tallest tower.
Dubai’s Burj Khalifa, however, is still No.1 at a whopping 2,717ft (828m) in height.
