The Petronius Compliant Tower is an oil platform standing 2100 ft or 640 m (to the top of the spire) and is the tallest non-guyed structure in existence but is mostly underwater.

 NorthEast Radio Watch by Scott Fybush
The Buffalo and Rochester clusters both represent sizable market positions in their own right, albeit in communities that were among the smallest in CBS Radio's empire, and the rumor mill is already in high gear with speculation about their next owners.
In Buffalo, Citadel and Entercom each have three FMs against a market cap of four, and Entercom's four AMs bring it right up to the limit of a total of seven stations there.
