Egypt

This article ranks the tallest buildings on the African continent by height. Initially, only a small number of major financial and commercial centers boasted large skylines, such as Cairo, Johannesburg, Lagos and Nairobi. However, since the 2000s, skyscrapers have been constructed in many other African cities, including Durban, Cape Town, Maputo, Abuja, Addis Ababa, Dar es Salaam, Alexandria, Harare, Abidjan, Luanda and Port Louis. Between 1973 and 2019, the tallest skyscraper in Africa was Johannesburg's Carlton Centre, which stands 223 m (732 ft) tall. It was surpassed by The Leonardo, also in Johannesburg, which stands 234 m (768 ft) tall. Since 2021, the tallest skyscraper is Iconic Tower in New Administrative Capital, Egypt, which is 393.8 m (1,292 ft) tall. The tallest skyscraper currently under construction in Africa is the F Tower in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, which will reach 400 m (1,300 ft) in height - work by PFO Africa and BESIX started in 2021.
