Voluntary building demolition is the decision by either the landowner or a higher government body to demolish a building for any number of reasons, ranging from severe structural damage to the redevelopment of the land it sits upon. Involuntary (or unplanned) building demolitions, such as the collapse of a building during a severe earthquake or by a terrorist attack, are not included in this list. Similarly, non-buildings such as roller coasters, chimneys, towers, and masts are not included in this list.

The demolition of especially tall buildings presents unique challenges, particularly when their location is within densely populated areas of their respective cities. They are most often deconstructed floor-by-floor down to the basement, as opposed to controlled implosion of the structure, which would most likely damage surrounding structures.

The following list includes the tallest demolished buildings, with a height of at least 100 metres (330 ft).
