11= Atrium Two — 351 / 107 28 1984
11= US Bank Tower (Cincinnati) — 351 / 107 26 1981
12= 36 East Seventh — 322 / 99 26 1989 Discrepancies exist about the building's height. An Emporis estimate[3] lists the height as 349.86 feet, while another source[4] suggests that the building is 322 feet tall, and LiDAR measurements[5] indicate 323 feet. With any of these numbers, the building would remain in the same place on the table relative to other structures.
12= Edgecliff Point — 322 / 99 24 1990 In East Walnut Hills. Not to be confused with The Edgecliff, a 231-foot structure residing nearby. (The Edgecliff is not listed here because it does not meet the 250-foot minimum height requirement.)
