Saskatoon is the largest city in Saskatchewan, Canada. In Saskatoon, there are ten buildings that stand taller than 70 m (230 ft). The tallest building in the city is the Nutrien Tower at 88.5 m (290 ft). The second-tallest is the 24-storey, 79.2-metre (260 ft) La Renaissance Apartments.[1] The third-tallest building in the city is the Hallmark Place, standing at 78.8 m (259 ft) tall with 27 storeys.

As of 2020, the city contains ten skyscrapers over 70 m (230 ft) and 44 high-rise buildings that exceed 35 m (115 ft) in height.[2]

The tallest building in Saskatoon is Nutrien tower. At 88.5 m (290 ft) tall, this tower became the tallest in the province once completed, replacing Regina’s Mosaic Tower.[3][4] As of June 2012, there were only 4 high-rises under construction, approved for construction, or proposed for construction in Saskatoon.[2]

The Saskatoon skyline can be photographed from various angles; since the Delta Bessborough is one of the most distinct buildings it is common to photograph the skyline from the east shore of the South Saskatchewan River centered on the Bessborough.[5][6][7][8]
