From the JPMorgan Chase headquarters in New York designed by UK architecture studio Foster + Partners to be “all-electric” to Miami’s first supertall skyscraper, we round up eight skyscrapers coming to the United States.
In various stages of development, the projects below are underway, with Jahn Studio‘s 1000 M in Chicago and SOM’s Two Manhattan West already at full height in their respective cities.
Some, like the Wilson Tower in Austin, have faced various construction delays, though the Texan city holds more spaces on this list than skyscraper-studded New York City.
Read on for eight projects by studios from all over the world.
1000 M, Chicago, by Helmut Jahn
Located in the Historic Michigan Avenue District of Chicago, 1000 M is a 73-storey skyscraper spanning 788 feet (240 metres), that consists of an angular base topped with a curved edge tower.
Originally, the tower was planned to reach 832 feet (254 metres) tall, but restrictions in the area caused the developers to reduce the height. The tower’s topped out in late summer 2023.
Two Manhattan West, Manhattan, by SOM
Two Manhattan West is one of a pair of towers supported by “mega columns” at their bases.
It is part of the Manhattan West development, which covers more than seven million square feet combined (650,321 square metres), with a masterplan by SOM that includes residential, retail, hotel and office spaces just north of New York’s High Line.
After nine years of development, the project will be completed in early 2024.

Sixth and Guadalupe, Austin, by Gensler
Joining several skyscrapers under construction in Austin, Gensler’s Sixth and Guadalupe will reach 875 feet (267 metres) high and consist of two industrial glass and steel volumes atop a podium.
It will host residential and office programs, as well as the city’s highest sky pool deck.
The Wilson Tower by HKS was set to be the tallest building in Texas at 80 storeys before its height was halved after an unsuccessful review in January 2023.
Now spanning 45 storeys, a new iteration of the design maintains the brise soleil wrapped facade, while the team plans to adjust the ground floor programming.
