加拿大米西索加的大厦“绝对世界塔”(Absolute World Towers)外观酷似好莱坞女星玛丽莲·梦露的沙漏型身材,其从参赛的来自世界各地的300多栋大厦中脱颖而出,被评为年度摩天大楼。
这座位于加拿大多伦多附近的摩天大厦高入云霄175米,由6名建筑设计师设计建造。仅从外观上看,它们拥有梦露般苗条的身材,外形十分地独特,因而被人们亲切地称为“建筑界中的玛丽莲·梦露”。两栋并排的塔楼皆有56层高,从低部到顶部角度之差有209度。一位参与 评审的专家说道:“这两栋建筑每相邻的一层都有8度之差,这不仅仅是一次建筑技术上的突破,还是一次对一成不变的高楼建筑模式的创新。”
在今年的年度摩天大厦评选中,被评为第二位的是阿拉伯联合酋长国首都阿布扎比的安巴尔塔(Al Bahr Towers)。该塔高约45米,在半透明的建筑立面上还可以进行太阳能发电。而高约238米,造价约8000万英镑(约合人民币7.79亿元)的坐落于巴基斯坦的布尔季·卡塔尔大厦(Burj Qatar)在此次评选中位列第三。除此之外,在此次年度帝国大厦名单上高度位列第一的是位于中国 广州的珠江大厦,这栋有71层的建筑实际高度约有310米。
