But people might say what is the problem even if these buildings are not financially viable at least they boast morale of the local population at large and after all these add up to our collective civilization prowess or do they?
Lets just zoom in through are smartphone camera lenses a bit and find out what's really happening.
Actually the real building boom is when you have a short supply of space in a prime location and competing corporations want a piece of the pie at any cost something on the lines of lets just say people falling over each other in a queue outside an apple store trying to get the latest iPhone and the resulting long queue is that Skyscraper.
So if i ask you what would you say if a new mobile manufacturing company called "changchow" manages an even longer queue outside its store by slashing the prices of its phone by 80% and then to make things worse claims as a publicity stunt that they have built the tallest skyscraper or literally the longest queue outside their store
"Yes" Exactly this is how it looks when a spire comes up in the middle of nowhere and people start claiming it as the tallest and thinnest and whackiest and leanest tower of the world.
Therefore its rather necessary to frame some of the criteria which can help us zoom in on genuine Skyscrapers which are as follows
1. A Developer who is convinced to make a profit out of the entire project.
2. A Market which is ready to buy or rent the properties without risking his or her fortune.
3. A Building with no predetermined skyline in mind.
4. A Building which needs to be tall and not which wants to be tall due to high rates of land and very high number of companies and interested parties are willing to pay a bounty to be in that locality
that is an genuine skyscraper we are talking about.
