- In this video, we'll review the 10 tallest buildings in Ghana. Skyscrapers and tall buildings are very common across the world. In Africa, the tallest tower is the 270-meters, the Great Mosque of Algiers while the tallest buildings found on the continent include the Carlton Centre in South Africa at 233 meters, the Britam Tower in Kenya at 200 meters, and the 173 meter Ponte City Apartments in Johannesburg South Africa. The Skyline of Accra is changing at high speed with many luxurious buildings and apartments rising up. Construction is booming in Ghana's capital Accra. Shiny new high-rise blocks and shopping centers are sprouting up all over the city, and the cranes dotting the skyline hint that more are on the way. The building boom is accompanied by new wealth. Ghana is among the fastest-growing economy in the world, according to the International Monetary Fund. Although there are many ongoing constructions in the country, especially in the Accra the capital, our video today will focus on existing tall buildings in the country.

Thank you brother 🇬🇭🇰🇪
Beautiful Ghana ,I want to live there 🍸
Your productions are top notch. Often well researched.
Thanks for the great feedback!!! Don't forget to check out our other videos and also to share with friends.
Accra is like an average European city almost no highrises only mid-rise buildings however, that could change at any moment. There's also alot of work needed within the inner city as we currently allow low rise buildings and slums to be built at city centers. If there is a govt policy to regulate this as in other countries, Accra could emerge as one of Africa's most beautiful cities. Currently, the living environment in Accra can be said to be satisfactory, but in terms of highrises, greenparks etc Addis Ababa, Nairobi, Lagos, Abidjan, Luanda, Harare, ofcourse SA cities, etc are better. Also, lookout for Kumasi, Takoradi, Koforidua, Sunyani and Tamale. I think these cities has a lot of potential in the coming years especially Takoradi.
Yh takoradi has great potential!
@S E P the mass tower is being built at airport city. In Accra.
God bless Ghana 👍

GHANA IS BEAUTIFUL
What’s the height of the Chateau Towers in Osu?
Chateau Towers is a little below 50 meters with 13 floors and 120 apartments. It's not the highest in town. However, the list will change, as there're other projects coming up. Thanks for watching... don't forget to share the video with friends on social media and whatsapp.
Greatness
I burst out laughing when I heard the pronunciation of “Accra” repeatedly... that said, I appreciate this video
Is there any ongoing projects in Ghana..? I heard of the Marine drive project....Apart from that is there any ?...
Yes, there's a lot of ongoing and proposed projects in Ghana. Unfortunately, Hope City died off after the change in government and there's little news about the world-class Petronia city. However, the skyline line of Accra is rising so fast, with many buildings at the Airport city, leaving out Accra Central and the beachfront. Maybe it will change with Marine Drive Project. There's The Signature, Kenta Tower, Accra Twin Towers, Cantonments City, Accra inter and intra-city bus terminal, Tribute House, The Exchange, and many more construction ongoing....We'll have videos coming, so stay tuned :)
@@TheNewAfricaChannel Hope city actually died before Mahama left office in 2017. After the sod had been cut, no construction took place and the site was even changed after
@@TheNewAfricaChannel Oh thank you very much for your steadfastness to reply me....Am happy such developmental projects are going on in Ghana......Thank you for your time i appreciate it..... we'll be expecting the videos....
Check out for wakanda city in Cape coast castle. The multi billion dollar project start
None of those buildings would make the top 20 list in Nairobi Kenya...but I like Accra.
Good observation, as there're 18 building in Nairobi that stands above 80m to 200m. So only the number 1 in Ghana can make the top 20 list. With that said, note that East Africa started building vertically much earlier on as compared to West Africa. This is however changing, as there're currently ongoing project and proposed projects in many west African countries, including Ghana.
Yeah sure but I know Ghana can get it done and there are more going on.
@@TheNewAfricaChannel I wish Ghana all the best.
Nairobi looks very 1970s so fuck off
@@kennykross3306 thats the central business district Nairobi has weslands, upperhill, and kilimani so looks like he can fuck back on

Ghanaian are scared of tall buildings
Don’t blame us sweetheart 😂😂😂😂🥰🥰
@S E P Lies..its not.Its on the same stretch with Nigeria
@S E P 😂😂😂😂
Lit
talking about infastructure Ghana indeed, lacks behind such countries as Nairobi,Kenya, DarreSalam,Tanzania even Abidjan ,Cote D' Ivoire and the reason is not far fetched, the government of the first president of Ghana, Kwame Nkrumah sadly, got toppled and the subsequent unstable governments, and leaders who are not infastructure oriented, not so the leadership of Jomo Kenyatta, Julius Nyerere Houphet Boigny, these had a stable government until their demise
The tallest is 27 .
Accra needs more high skylines and good roads
Let me run ghana and you will see that and more.
@@jamiekebarrett9418 😂😂
Only 10
If this is considered tall, then there is no hope for African. To be frank, this is cringe and embarrassing
Africa is a huge continent, so i guess that was a wrong statement. This video was in reference to only Ghana. If you want to know about the race for the tallest Skyscraper in Africa, check out the video we made some few weeks ago: czcams.com/video/Q2EqFv6pkqQ/video.html
Also, there's nothing embarrassing here, as Africa is developing. If you check out the more developed countries in Europe, they don't build that high, even Kenya; Egypt, and South Africa have more tall buildings. The tallest building in Austria is 220m, Germany is 259m, Spain is 228m, and and and...
you dont need tall buildings to be a rich country. dubai needs it cos they live off of tourism
How so Accra situated in earth quake zone so we can't built tall building past certain altitude
Tall buildings don't matter it's about how beautiful a country or city looks is not about tall buildings nice video big up keep the good work
@ Issah tall buildings matter. Accra has limited land space and should be building taller structures. Our city planners should be doing better
