The Lakhta Center is an 87-story skyscraper built in
the outskirts of Lakhta in St. Petersburg, Russia. Standing 1,516 feet tall,
the Lakhta Center is the tallest building in Russia, the tallest building in
Europe and the 13th tallest building in the world.
The concrete pouring of the bottom slab of Lakhta’s
Center’s foundation was registered by Guinness World Records as the largest
continuous concrete pour. 19,624 cubic meters of concrete were used, which is
approximately 3,000 cubic meters more than in the previous similar record registered
at Wilshire Grand Tower in Los Angeles.
Lakhta Center is also the world’s northernmost
skyscraper.
