The tallest building in the city is Crown Commercial Building at 148 metres (486 feet), a mixed-used high-rise completed in 2001.

There are at least 10 structures in the city taller than 80 metres (260 ft).

The development of high-rise buildings in Keelung reflects the city's transformation from a traditional port town into a modern urban hub. In the mid-20th century, Keelung's skyline was dominated by low-rise port facilities and warehouses that supported its maritime economy. The first generation of taller buildings began to emerge in the 1970s and 1980s, coinciding with Taiwan's rapid industrialisation and urbanisation. During this period, early mid-rise office and residential towers appeared near the Keelung Harbor area and downtown Ren-ai District, symbolising the city's shift toward commercial modernity.^[1]

In the 1990s and early 2000s, new zoning regulations and urban renewal projects encouraged more vertical development. However, compared to the neighbouring Taipei or New Taipei City, Keelung's terrain—surrounded by mountains and coastal hills—limited large-scale skyscraper construction. Most tall buildings constructed during this era were mixed-use complexes or residential towers under 100 metres, such as those near the Keelung railway station and Ai’er Harbor district.^[2]

A new wave of high-rise development began in the 2010s with the city's waterfront redevelopment and the government's "Keelung Port Regeneration Project". This initiative aimed to revitalise the urban core through mixed-use complexes, hotels, and transport infrastructure improvements.^[3] Landmark projects such as the Keelung Tower (基隆塔) and other planned high-rise residential developments along Zhongzheng Road and Maritime Plaza reflected an ambition to redefine Keelung’s skyline for the 21st century.^[4]
