Chicagoland makes it easy for you.

There are only 2 buildings in the entire MSA outside of the City of Chicago that rise above 100m.

One in Oak Brook Terrace, IL and the other in Itasca, IL.


Generally speaking, there aren't too many buildings over 100m in the Midwest that lie outside of the municipal limits of central cities. Chicagoland has the two mentioned above, Metro Detroit has a handful in Southfield, MI, and then there's the infamous "second downtown" of Clayton, MO with several of them just outside of St. Louis. I can't think of any others off the top of my head.
