Alex Honnold made it savely to the top of Taipei 101 tower in 1:31h.
The difficulty grading is estimated to be around 5.11c (6c/6c+), which is a medium technical difficulty for experienced climbers, but still hard when you do it for 1,5h on a very exposed building.

@mflx @gripped typo, I think - 5.11c is nearer to French 6c/6c+.

@pozorvlak @gripped Yes, you are right - my mistake! Thanks.
Especially the "dragons" and the last part ("tower") looked sketchy as hell, so gradings are really artificial here.
