What is a superstructure?

Definition
Any building exceeding 1000 ft (300 m) in height essentially a skyscraper. Almost every current superstructure is among the top 10 in a certain category of height freestanding, to the top of the antenna, to the top of the building itself and including the underground floors.

Requirements
Almost all superstructures are built in flat areas and require a solid base. Most of them are not in regions prone to large earthquakes, although there are exceptions (Tokyo, Western Coast of the US, Taiwan)
