Hi,
We have been looking at synagogue construction.
The synagogue is supposed to be taller than any residence in town, per the verse (Proverbs 1:21), 'You (alternatively: "she") will call out at the tops of the noisy streets.' However, this is not an absolute requirement.
(Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim 150:2)
[Note: I have heard that churches are built with spires for the same purpose.]
Have a great day,
Mordechai
