No, I believe it wasn't originally part of the building but was added in the 1930s or so.

1. Does this also count as a skybridge?:
Grande Arche in Courbevoie (Paris):

2. I don't like this one, but it's very odd:

3. Just a nice one:

Is there any skybridge that is higher than the one between the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia?

I don't think there is a higher one. This skybridge is 58,4m long, links levels 41 and 42 and is 170m above ground level.

Petrona's one is the most elegant skybridge in any high-rises, in my opinion :)

The building's freakin' ugly, but the skybridges are nice (not that they're very "sky", though.)

StarFish,
Do you have any pics of the "skybridge" on the Nokia HQ-building in Copenhagen. It is quite long and has a nice shape, I really like that one.
