    Sometimes they are not! I have seen several instances where they are built into the structure with only the boom removed.

    A 400m high crane is usually built alongside the building not inside however on the rare case it is built inside a shaft then a removal crane and winches will be set up on the roof to take down the tower crane and lower to the ground.  The removal crane is designed to be transported via the buildings lift
