Tampa, the third-largest city in the U.S. state of Florida, is home to 127 completed high-rises, 18 of which stand taller than 250 feet (76 m). The tallest building in Tampa is the 42-story 100 North Tampa, which rises 579 feet (176 m) and was completed in 1992. The structure is the fifteenth-tallest completed building in Florida, and the tallest building in the state outside of Miami and Jacksonville. The city's second-tallest building is the Bank of America Plaza, which rises 42 stories and 577 feet (176 m) in height. The building was damaged in a 2002 plane crash, in which a young pilot stole and crashed a Cessna 172 into the building's north face. Overall, of the 20 tallest buildings in Florida, two are located in Tampa.

The history of skyscrapers in Tampa began with the completion of the Citizens Bank Building in 1913; this building is often regarded as the first high-rise in the city, rising 10 stories. Later in the 1920s, two more stories were added to reach 145 feet (44 m) in height. The city's first skyscraper to surpass 250 feet (76 m) was the 280-foot (85 m) Franklin Exchange Building, completed in 1966. Tampa went through a large high-rise construction boom that has lasted from the completion of One Tampa City Center in 1981 to the present; during this time, the city has seen the completion of 16 of its 18 tallest buildings, including 100 North Tampa and the Bank of America Plaza. Although no Tampa skyscrapers rank among the tallest in the United States, the city is home to four buildings rising higher than 500 feet (152 m). As of February 2013, Tampa ranks second in the state in high-rise count, behind Miami, which is the site of 261 high-rises.

Tampa's skyscraper construction has continued to the present; since 2000, six buildings rising higher than 250 feet (76 m) have been completed. The latest, Element, rises 460 feet (140 m) in height and was completed in 2009. Element stands as the fifth-tallest building in Tampa, behind the 525-foot (160 m) SunTrust Financial Centre. As of February 2013, there were 23 high-rises under construction or proposed for construction in the city.
