The raw size of a structure has the ability to make you stand in amazement much like the Twin Towers did for a time in New York.
A tragedy like the incident with the Twin Towers reminds us how magnificent these structures are. It takes years of planning and years of building to create these beautiful towers that showcase design talent and economic power.
From different concept designs, to Eiffel Tower additions, here are 55 fantastic towers.
