Industrialization started in the 1930s in Mongolia (then the Mongolian People's Republic), with large-scale building construction starting in the 1960s-1970s, where the core of Ulaanbaatar was built. By the end of the communist era, Mongolia's tallest building was a 16-floor apartment building in Darkhan, constructed in 1985. [1] [2]

Since 1990, there was an increase in 9-12 floor buildings, while 16+ floor buildings started appearing since 2010. Mongolia's building code legislations define high-rise buildings as those 16+ floors in height. [3]

Mongolia's tallest pre-modern structure is Kherlen Bars Khot in Dornod Province.

Buyant-Ukhaa International Airport, formerly called Chinggis Khaan International Airport from 2005 to 2020, is a semi-operational international airport serving Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, situated 18 km (11 mi) southwest of the capital.

Meraas Tower was a proposed supertall skyscraper that was to be 550 m (1,804 ft) tall, and to be constructed in Jumeirah Garden City, Dubai. When completed it would have been one of the tallest skyscrapers in Dubai. The tower design had a series of faceted surfaces that would help light and air travel throughout the building. The faceted shapes were projected to maximize energy generation, balance natural light, and offer 360-degree views of the city below. They also would create natural atrium spaces as the building ascended, allowing the creation of naturally lit sky gardens. Exposing the intermediate floors would have made it seem as if the structure was composed of four smaller towers stacked one on top of another. Tower was to include 300,000 square meters of hotel, convention, commercial and retail spaces.
