Johor Bahru is the capital of the state of Johor, Malaysia. The city is situated along the Straits of Johor at the southern end of Peninsular Malaysia. It has a population of 858,118 as of 2020, while its metropolitan area, with a population of more than 2,500,000, is the second largest in the country.

In recent years, many high-rise developments have sprung up all across Johor Bahru, due in part to the influx of foreign investors. As of 2021, it is estimated that there are over 572 completed high-rises and skyscrapers in the city. According to Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, Johor Bahru is the second tallest city in the nation, as well as the 63rd tallest city in the world by number of 150m+ completed buildings.

Currently, the tallest skyscraper in this waterfront city is The Astaka Tower A, built in 2018. It stands at 278.8 meters tall (height to architectural top), which also makes it the current tallest residential building in Southeast Asia. It is worth noting that Tower B of the same condominium complex is the second tallest building in Johor Bahru.
