This map shows the tallest building in every state

What’s the tallest building in your state? From just 11 floors high in Vermont to 104 floors high in New York, the size of each U.S. state’s tallest building varies greatly.

According to data compiled by HighRises.com, just over three-quarters of the tallest buildings are used for offices. Other popular uses include residential at 9.8 percent and hotels at 5.88 percent. Of course, some of the buildings meld different purposes all into one high-rise.

Let’s check out what building reaches highest in all 50 states.
