A supertall building is an occupied "supertall" structure higher than 300 m (984 ft) and beneath 600 m (1,969 ft). A form of skyscraper, it falls midway between a common minimum definition of "skyscraper" (a building taller 150 m (492 ft)) and a "megatall" building (taller than 600 m (1,969 ft)).[1]
Different organizations from the United States and Europe define skyscrapers generally as buildings at least 150 metres in height or taller.[2][3][4][5]

Skyscrapers are different from towers or masts because they are habitable. The term was first applied during the late-nineteenth century, as the public marvelled at the elevated, steel-frame buildings being erected in Chicago and New York, USA. Modern skyscrapers tend to be constructed from reinforced concrete. As a general rule, a building must be at least 150 metres high to qualify as a skyscraper.

This definition falls midway between many common definitions worldwide, and is intended as a metric compromise which can be applied across the board worldwide"
