Really enjoyed this. Another interesting building is this hotel in North Korea: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryugyong_Hotel

I guess it doesn't get much attention due to its location...

I suspect the author(s) limited the selections to completed, occupied buildings, as that hotel is "the tallest unoccupied building in the world". If buildings in progress were on the list, I would have also expected to see Jedda Tower. [1]
