PLANS are underway to build a MILE-HIGH skyscraper in Japan.
If approved the huge tower would be the tallest building in the world, dwarfing the current record-holder, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai which is half as tall at 2,717ft (828m).
Located in Tokyo Bay, an inlet southeast of the city proper, the plan — dubbed Next Tokyo — wouldn’t just be a single massive building, but if approved would emerge as a mini city designed to combat climate change.
