3. Future New York will be pre-eminently the city of skyscrapers. The first steel frame structure that was regarded as a skyscraper is the Tower Building at 50 Broadway, a ten-story structure 129 feet high. There are now over a thousand buildings of that height in Manhattan, and hundreds in course of construction. The best known skyscrapers are the Singer Building, 612 feet high; the Met- ropolitan Building, 700 feet high, and the Woolworth Tower which towers above them all and rises to a height of 790 feet. The proposed Pan-American Building is to be 801 feet high. N. Y. 338 HERE
