What other skyscrapers / high-rises / tall buildings that we would recognize as following the typical "skyscraper" or office building model are there in the world that are UNESCO world heritage sites?

The only other ones that come to mind for me are the "Three Graces" in Liverpool, and then, only the one on the left is likely to be considered anything approaching a "skyscraper."
