State capitols have often been among the tallest buildings in their states or capital cities at the time of their construction and remain significant landmarks. The height of state capitol buildings is often also a source of pride in states, in particular for those that have capitols that exceed in height the 288-foot United States Capitol in Washington, D.C.[1]

In addition to the US capitol and state capitols, city halls are often of significance as landmarks and exceed the height of state capitols. City halls of notable stature include Philadelphia City Hall (548 feet),[2] Los Angeles City Hall (454 feet),[3] Kansas City City Hall (443 feet),[4] Buffalo City Hall (398 feet)[5] and Milwaukee City Hall (393 feet).[6]
