Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat

The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) is an international body in the field of tall buildings, including skyscrapers, and sustainable urban design.

It is a non-profit organization based at the Monroe Building in Chicago, Illinois, United States.

The CTBUH is widely considered to be an authority on the official height of tall buildings. Its stated mission is to study and report on all aspects of the planning, design, and construction of tall buildings.

The CTBUH was founded at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania in 1969 by Lynn S. Beedle, where its office remained until October 2003 when it relocated to the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago.

Two recent high-rise condos to be recognized by CTBUH are:
