I went to the SSP database to look at how many 100m+ buildings were Built or Under Construction in the 2 fastest building places in Canada and the US since 2000. I used the 100m benchmark (often used globally) rather than the 150m preferred by Americans. 100m is a better benchmark imo. A 100-150m building may not be the first thing one notices in a skyline but it definitely has an impact. It roughly translates to a 32-35 floor building. I first listed by City Proper and then listed by Metropolitan Area. I think I got it roughly correct. This is what it spat out.
