It is pure superstition and nothing more.
The fear of the number 13 is known as triskaidekaphobia. This superstition often stems from cultural beliefs, where the number 13 is associated with bad luck or misfortune. As a result, many people avoid the number in various contexts, such as buildings or hotel floors.
because people are superstitious. 13 is suppose to be an unlucky number so they usually skip over 13. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,14,15 and so on. it's stupid but people are very superstitious i believe apartment buildings skips 13 too because no one would rent on the 13th floor.
Many people are superstitious about the number 13. Most high-rise buildings do not have a floor numbered "13", for example; floors are numbered 11, 12, 14, 15 and so on. Friday the 13th is (sometimes jokingly, but sometimes very seriously) considered to be unlucky.

The number of floors in a 400-foot tall building can vary significantly based on the height of each floor. Typically, commercial buildings have floors that are around 10 to 12 feet high, while residential buildings may have shorter floors, around 8 to 10 feet. Assuming an average height of 10 feet per floor, a 400-foot building would have approximately 40 floors. However, this number can change based on architectural design and the purpose of the building.
The number of floors an elevator can access depends on its design and purpose. Residential elevators typically serve 2 to 5 floors, while commercial elevators can reach 20 floors or more. High-rise buildings often use specialized elevators that can travel up to 100 floors or higher. Ultimately, the maximum number of floors is determined by the elevator's specifications and building infrastructure.
The number 4 in Chinese is 四, which is pronounced as "Si". This word is rather similar to the word 死, which means death. This is why the number four is considered as a bad omen, or a unlucky number. Some buildings doesn't have the fourth floors, or any floors with the number 4 in it.
The exact number that you seek is not easily available: 'high-rise' is not defined as to the number of floors, for example. As well, some tall buildings may be mixed used, meaning that the lower floors can be offices or hotel rooms with upper floors being apartments or condominiums.
