^Taipei 101 is actually a very interesting supertall. Another is the Tuntex Sky Tower in Kaohsiung. I like that those two have interesting facades. My biggest beef with really tall buildings is they mostly have boring facades and have to rely on an interesting shape to have any kind of distinctive quality. As for the really tall stand alone look, I don't mind it. I'm more critical of their design than their height.
