|Malmö

|{{flag|Sweden}}

|{{convert|325|m|ft|0|abbr=on}}

Tellus Tower 1

|Stockholm

|{{flag|Sweden}}

|{{convert|237|m|ft|0|abbr=on}}

|78

|2020

|Originally planned to be 225 m tall, but in March 2014, it has been increased to 237 m. The project was cancelled in 2020 due to concerns about their visual impact and shadow cast on areas of national interest. If built, it would have been the second tallest building in Scandinavia after Karlatornet.
