A little more perspective

The Skyscraper Center separates 680.5 meters to the highest tip from 678.9 meters to the architectural top. The tall spire is included in both; this complete-tip record also includes the uppermost equipment.

The stated tip stands 48.5 meters above Shanghai Tower. Much of Merdeka’s upper silhouette is a narrow spire, so this visual comparison does not imply occupied floors reach the same level.
