St. Petersburg is the only Russian city on the list of the 15 tallest completed buildings in the world. Oddly, even Moscow doesn’t show up in the first 40 cities. Actually, Moscow is just on the 45th spot with its Federation Tower (373.7 m / 1226 t), looking like a giant chimney. The Lakhta Center is situated in Primsorsky District of St. Petersburg and alongside offices, it offers several public functions, such as medical center, planetarium, a bank and a performance hall.
