These two futuristic towers could be the world’s tallest

If approved, the buildings would rise a full kilometer

WEEKENDEDITION Currently Dubai’s 1,969-foot Burj Khalifa is the world’s tallest tower, but two new super tall and futuristic buildings could be coming to China.

If built, the Phoenix Towers by London-based Chetwoods Architects will become the tallest structures on the planet, even beating out the yet-to-built Kingdom Tower in Saudi Arabia, according to Buzzbuzzhome.
