List of tallest buildings in Argentina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The tallest buildings in Argentina are primarily residential and most of them were completed after 2000,[1] with some notable exceptions being the Kavanagh Building, an Art Deco skyscraper completed in 1936, and the Alas Building, commissioned by President Juan Perón in 1950 and completed in the late 1950s.

Puerto Madero skyline, Buenos Aires

Almost all of the country's high-rise buildings are located in Buenos Aires, the Argentine capital city and a major metropolitan area in South America.[2] Within Buenos Aires, the Dock 3 of Puerto Madero has been the site for most of Argentina's tallest skyscrapers.[3][4] Tall buildings have also emerged at the Dock 1, where the 192-metre (649 ft) tall Harbour Tower is currently under construction, set to be completed in 2024 as the second tallest building in Argentina.[5]

Completed

This list ranks completed buildings in Argentina that stand at least 120 metres (394 ft) tall, based on standard height measurement. This includes spires and architectural details but does not include antenna masts. An equal sign (=) following a rank indicates the same height between two or more buildings. The "Year" column indicates the year in which a building was completed.
