THE world's tallest wooden skyscraper will one day be home to over 200 lucky residents - and they'll even have free access to a collection of electric Tesla's.
The building of the cloud-scraping tower has been given the green light and is set to be erected in Perth, Australia.
If completed, the structure - that will be twice as tall as Big Ben - will claim the title of the tallest wooden building on the planet.
On Thursday, Perth’s Metro Inner-South Joint Development Assessment Panel gave Grange Development the go-ahead for the colossal build, called C6.
According to CNN, the structure will be composed of a hybrid of materials, 42 per cent of which will be timber and the core of which will be reinforced concrete.

If built to completion, the skyscraper will overtake the current title holder of the tallest wooden tower by nearly 345ft.
The current title holder is Wisconsin’s 284-foot, 25-story Ascent building- which seems like a spec compared to C6’s proposed 627-foot height and 50 stories.
C6 is also set to trump Sydney’s in-the-works Atlassian Headquarters, which will reportedly stand at 599 feet once complete in 2026.
A completion date has not yet been announced for C6.
Both C6 and the Atlassian HQ will combine a steel exoskeleton with laminated timber beams in what is claimed to be more environmentally friendly than concrete.
“We can’t grow concrete,” developer Grange’s director, James Dibble, wrote in a building proposal given to authorities.
It also referred to C6’s plan as “a new open-sourced blueprint that utilizes hybrid construction methodology to offset the carbon within our built environment".
Grange also stated that C6 will be carbon negative, storing more carbon than it uses, and will combine lightweight and durable materials.
According to the project's website, the tower will be made from approximately 580 pine trees, sourced from sustainably managed and farmed forests.
C6 will also house edible and floral gardens on its rooftop.

And if that wasn't enough, residents of its over 200 apartments will have access to 80 entirely-electric Tesla Model 3s.
The fancy cars will be powered by an on-site EV charging station that is fitted in every bay using 100% renewable energy.
Photos of the building plans by Grange show the sleek building surrounded by lush greenery and stunning spiral wooden features.
Hanging plants can be seen dangling off the ground-level balcony and the wooden theme continues into the building's interior.
Images of the luxury apartments show modern and neutral features from plush beige sofas to high wooden stools.
Wall-length windows flood the space with natural lighting and potted plants give the area a lick of colour.
But C6 isn't the only building that is breaking records across the globe.
Dubai has some serious ambitions to become a megacity with a string of record-breaking projects - including the world's tallest tower.
Standing nearly four times the height of the Empire State Building, the Dubai Creek Tower will be a centrepiece of the city's plans over the next 10 years.
But not only are the Emirates taking on projects of their own, they are also partnering with established brands worldwide to elevate their prestige and take themselves to a whole new level.
SeaWorld Abu Dhabi is the next mega project taking place in the Emirates, set to become not only the largest but most expensive aquarium on the planet.
Set to open this year, the £12 billion SeaWorld site will house more than 68,000 marine animals including deadly sharks, manta rays, and will hold 25 million gallons of water.
