'''Skyscrapers''' are [[shell]] buildings that were introduced in ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]''<ref>[https://twitter.com/TheSims3/status/19858329424 TheSims3 tweet] The tall buildings can actually be lived in. If you make enough Simoleons you can even buy one of the luxury high rises.</ref> and ''[[The Sims 4: City Living]]''. They are "Shellshell buildings"<ref>[https://twitter.com/TheSims3/status/19858608426 TheSims3 tweet] The apartments are extensions of Shells from ''World Adventures''. Big models, but with some floors that can be built and lived in.</ref> and only offer one or two floors.

Skyscrapers were first introduced in ''Late Night''. Most of the skyscrapers include a couple of floors (such as the [[basement]]; some nicer penthouses have a second floor bedroom.) as a playable area for either residential [[penthouse]]s or community lots, such as [[Bar]]s.<ref name="gamesradar preview2">[http://www.gamesradar.com/pc/the-sims-3/preview/the-sims-3-late-night-vampires-wont-be-like-twilight-says-associate-producer/a-20100907144624451036/g-20061106113750640058 Gamesradar - The Sims 3: Late Night]</ref> More than one [[rabbit hole]] can be inside a skyscraper.<ref name="simsnetwork gamescom">[http://www.simsnetwork.com/simpedia.php?gamescom2010=ts3ep3 SimsNetwork - The Sims 3 Late Night @ Gamescom 2010]</ref> It is the first time in the series that a skyscraper can be made without the use of cheats, though they were available as neighborhood decorations in ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life]]''. Skyscrapers can be placed in buildBuild modeMode, though, as any rabbit hole, it has to be placed before a family moves in.

Skyscrapers return once again in ''City Living''. They are more often seen as high story [[apartment]] buildings and usually have one to four apartments in them, though some of the skyscrapers also have a penthouse on top. Some of the buildings are mostly one- story, but there couple that have two stories. These skyscrapers can not be moved, edited or placed into another [[world]] by the player and are only found in [[San Myshuno]].
