Autograph Tower Is Crowned the Tallest Building in the Southern Hemisphere
Recently, the Autograph Tower was officially recognized as the tallest building in the southern hemisphere by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), a leading international authority in skyscraper buildings and sustainable urban design. The CTBUH recognition plaque signifies its excellence in design and construction, as well as its contribution to vertical urban development.
This record previously belonged to the Q1 Tower in Australia. Furthermore, CTBUH also acknowledges Autograph Tower as the future home of the World’s Highest Outdoor Swimming Pool, which is currently still under construction.
According to Arifin, the Mayor of Central Jakarta, this achievement is not just about height and records, but also a symbol of a grand vision, bold innovation, and collaborative work.
“Soaring over 380 meters, the Autograph Tower is also a symbol of the spirit of progress, competitiveness, and the new face of Jakarta as a world-class center for business, investment, and tourism,” he said during the inauguration on Wednesday, July 9, 2025.
