This means that the buildings highlighted are often not the tallest in a given year, but represent the best qualities and innovations in the typology.The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat began its annual awards program in 2002 with the creation of the Lynn S. Beedle Lifetime Achievement Award, and later added the Fazlur R. Khan Lifetime Achievement Award in 2004.
