PHOTOS: These 10 buildings are really, really tall, y'all. Check them out.

The world's tallest building is a 160-story tower in Dubai. However, there's no telling when that record will fall as skyscrapers keep getting taller. The 10 tallest buildings in Atlanta show how the city's skyline has evolved.

Topping the list is the Bank of America Plaza in Midtown at 600 Peachtree St. It is 1,023 feet tall with 55 floors.

2. Truist Plaza (formerly SunTrust Plaza), located at 303 Peachtree St. is 867 feet tall with 60 floors.

3. One Atlantic Center stands at 1201 West Peachtree St. With 50 floors, it's 820 feet tall.

4. 191 Peachtree Tower opened in 1992 as the city prepared for The Olympics. It's 770 feet tall with 50 floors.

5. Westin Peachtree Plaza still stands out among Atlanta's mass of skyscrapers. It's 723 feet tall with 73 floors.

6. The Georgia Pacific Tower at 133 Peachtree St. is 697 feet tall with 51 floors. It was completed in 1981. The building is on the former site of the Loew's Grand Theater, where "Gone with the Wind" premiered.

7. The Promenade II at 1230 Peachtree St. in Midtown is 691 feet tall with 40 floors and was finished in 1989. Two other taller towers in the same style of Promenade were supposed to be built adjacent to it. But the sinking economy in the early 1990s scuttled those plans.

8. The AT&T Midtown Center building at 675 W. Peachtree St., as seen from the Varsity, is 677 feet tall with 47 floors. The boxy, flat-top structure is your standard corporate modern, which was followed by a spate of masonry towers with dramatic tops.

9. 3344 Peachtree is 665 feet high with 48 floors.

10. 1180 Peachtree in Midtown is 657 feet tall with 41 floors.
