Displayed on a horizontal grid representing one meter per pixel, individuals can view to-scale drawings of buildings side-by-side. What started in 1997 as a small collection of a few dozen simple black-and-white drawings, became a searchable database of over 26,000 drawings of skyscrapers, buildings, and other structures. SkyscraperPage Diagrams List Users are able to sort buildings by height, by regional location, by year completed or by many other criteria through the site's search function.
The drawings are created by an international volunteer community of illustrators who submit their work to the site. Anyone can submit a drawing to the SkyscraperPage diagrams.
