List of tallest buildings in Savannah

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Savannah is a major city but it has no skyscrapers. What we have here is a list of all buildings in Savannah, and two outside Savannah, that are at least 27m tall.

This fails WP:LISTN for multiple reasons:


 * Firstly, the list has no navigational purpose as the overwhelming majority of the buildings featured are not notable enough for their own Wikipedia article.
 * Secondly, this topic does not have WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS. Database listings in Emporis do not constitute significant coverage.
 * I see no evidence that the topic 'List of tallest buildings in Savannah' is covered as a group by reliable secondary sources but I am happy to be proved wrong here.
 * No significant high-rise building under construction so little chance of future notability; no point in sending to draft.
 * The city is not the largest in Georgia nor is it the capital.
 * I really do not believe that a building being taller than 27m makes it notable. We do not set the bar so low in Chicago or Atlanta so why are we doing it here?
 * This currently violates WP:NOTMIRROR as the article mostly mirrors Emporis.

 * delete The usual list of not very tall and largely non-notable buildings, sourced as usual entirely to Emporis. Mangoe (talk) 18:04, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Article does not meet WP:GNG, there is not WP:SIGCOV discussing the subject directly and indepth or WP:LISTN, WP:RS do not discuss this as a group. The city is not notable for tall buildings and the List does not meet the purposes of WP:CLN, only a single list entry has an article about a structure that may not meet WP:N.  // Timothy ::  talk  01:34, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I completely agree. If the only claim to notability is from Stillwell Towers then it's a very weak one. Spiderone  10:14, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Heck, I'm not even convinced that Stillwell Towers is notable... Edge3 (talk) 01:26, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment - I have nominated Stillwell Towers for deletion via WP:PROD. Edge3 (talk) 01:31, 13 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Weak keep - has three out of four elements of my standards: large enough city, three buildings over 60 stories, two of which are blue links, and it makes sense. I lean towards a keep because it's well-known city that attracts tourists, and articles could be written about more of the buildings on the list. Bearian (talk) 02:17, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * which buildings are over 60 stories? I also can only see one blue linked building. Spiderone  10:59, 11 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom and the comments above. Savannah's architecture is not known for its tall buildings. Edge3 (talk) 01:26, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
