Here's an article about tall buildings completed in 2012:

GLASS ON WEB - Articles - Year in Review: Tall Trends of 2012 (http://www.glassonweb.com/articles/article/844)

Their definition of "tall" is 200 meters or higher. Devon Tower is 257 meters.

The full list of 200m+ buildings completed in 2012 is in this pdf:

There was a dip in 2012 of talls constructed. Devon Tower was only one of two completed in the US. The other one was the Revel Resort and Casino in Atlantic City at 219 meters.
They put in a pic of the Atlantic City tower, but did not for Devon Tower (jeez... why not?)

They expect the construction of these tall skyscrapers to pick up again in 2013 and 2014. There are some real monsters on that list.

Wow! The US only had two. Even Canada had four...

I like the Japan Post Tower & the Huarun Tower. I guess cause they're not absurdly tall but not so small that they don't really catch your eye, per say.
