The history of skyscrapers in Kuala Lumpur began with the completion of the 73 m (239 ft) 18-story, Lee Yan Lian Building in 1945. Though not the city's first high-rise, it was the first building to surpass the 41 m (135 ft) spire of Sultan Abdul Samad Building,[4] which was built in 1894 to 1897.[5] The Lee Yan Lian Building, which stood as the tallest in the city held the title until it was in turn surpassed by the completion of the 77 m (253 ft) 20-story in the city which was built in December 1959, Malaysian Houses of Parliament.[6][7]
