I've been doing quite a bit of research on the subject of supertall structures. Although the Burj Dubai is now the world's tallest high rise and is actually under construction, it seems many designers want to push the boundaries of height for new buildings. Here are some of the planned structures that caught my attention:
The_Illinois
Sky_City_1000
X-Seed_4000
Aeropolis_2001
Shimizu_Mega-City_Pyramid
Madinat_Al-Hareer |

Don't forget Al Burj, also to be built in Dubai (see elsewhere on this forum).
It is speculated to become 1200 metres (roof height).
Construction should start in late 2008.
It seems the next mega highrise project that would really be realised after Burj Dubai.
But it's been quiet around Al Burj for some time.
