List of tallest buildings in Virginia Beach, Virginia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The skyline of Virginia Beach remained relatively low- to mid-rise until the 2000s, when the 23-story Armada Hoffler Tower was constructed in 2002.

The Westin Virginia Beach Town Center, 38 stories tall, took the top spot from Armada Hoffler Tower when it was completed in 2008 at the newly revitalized Virginia Beach Town Center. The Westin Virginia Beach Town Center is the tallest building in the city, and in Virginia.

The city has two skylines: One at Town Center and one at the oceanfront. The following ranking is a compilation of both.
