The tallest building in the city is the 20-storey, 80.8 m (265 ft) Assumption Place.[1] The second-tallest building in the city is the Blue Cross Centre, standing at only 43 m (141 ft) tall with 9 storeys. Moncton's skyline is dominated by the Bell Aliant Tower, the tallest free-standing structure in all four Atlantic provinces.
