Guggenheim by Frank Gehry

This week on Dezeen, we revealed photos of Frank Gehry's last major building, the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, following the architect's death at the age of 96.

Skytower construction
Canada's tallest skyscraper becomes first in country above 100 storeys

Three North American supertall skyscrapers made the news. In Toronto, Canada, the SkyTower by Hariri Pontarini Architects became the first building in Canada to surpass 100 storeys, making it the country's tallest.

In Miami, USA, the city's first supertall skyscraper reached the halfway mark in its ongoing construction. Once complete, it will rise a total of 100 storeys, making it the tallest tower in the state of Florida.

In Texas, USA, the supertall Waterline skyscraper by US studio KPF was photographed nearing completion. It has topped out at its full height of 1,025 feet (312 meters).

The Grand Ring

In an exclusive interview with Dezeen, architect Sou Fujimoto revealed that most of the structure of his Grand Ring – the world's largest wooden structure that was designed to encircle the Expo 2025 Osaka – will be burned as firewood.

The Grand Ring was designed to be dismantled, and demolition of the structure has now begun. While 200 metres will be kept, Fujimoto lamented that "70 per cent, at least as far as I've heard, they will just demolish and then make it chips for the fuel".
