twin towers
Paired identical highrise
Twin towers are a pair of matched high-rise buildings, typically identical or near-identical in design and standing side by side.
The term describes an architectural pairing rather than any specific structure: The twin towers of the Deutsche Bank complex dominate Frankfurt's skyline.
Many cities have landmark twin towers. (Capitalized Twin Towers usually refers to the destroyed World Trade Center buildings.)
