This photo was from my long car ride today. See the tall building far off in the background, underneath the freeway signs? That is Taipei 101, it is the tallest building in the world. BUT as of August 2, the developers for the competing tower, Burj Dubai, will surpass Taipei 101 by 12 meters. It will be completed by the end of this year. Taipei 101's time is short.
