EARLY SKYSCRAPERS

Skyscrapers are a part of cities all over the world. A skyscraper is a large building that has many uses. These uses include residential apartment buildings and large office buildings. At first, skyscrapers needed thick base walls to attain height. With the introduction of the steel frame, however, skyscrapers were able to be built higher and safer.
