Question: What is the tallest building in Texas?

Answer: The JPMorgan Chase Tower in Houston, which stands at 1,002 feet. Built between 1979 and 1981, the 75-story tower was initially planned to be 80 stories before the Federal Aviation Administration said it would interfere with air traffic at nearby William P. Hobby Airport at that height. While Houston is home to the state’s tallest building at the moment, the Waterline Tower under construction in Austin is slated to take that title when completed in 2026. Its projected height is 1,022 feet.
