tect Three Centuries Ago.
Credit for the first skyscraper built
in this country is generally conceded
to Chicago. it was built in the "loop
district" of that city in 1886. from
|plnns by llolabird & Roche. The first
[example of lofty building in New
lYork city was the structure at 50
lBroadway, designed by Bradford Lee
.Gilhert in 1888. A few years later
iboth these wonders became insignifi-
cant. and practically forgotten because
:they were so greatly outdone by suc-
ceeding skyscrapers. But these were
neither initial efforts. for a skyscraper
was designed nearly three centuries
ago, many generations before the dis-
covery of the steel cage system of
‘this day.
Jacques Ferret. an architect of
Chambery, avory. is the accredited
author of plans for an eleven story
building. 361 feet in height, which
must have had twice the space be-
tween iloors for today eleven stories
are cmwded within a height of 150
. feet. Ferret's building was planned to
be 166 feet long and 140 feet wide,
with supporting walls twelve feet
thick at the base.
While never executed. the project
of Perret in many ways was a re-
markable prophetic vision. Evi~
dently it was intended for dwelling
purposes. for in describing the project
he wrote. "This great and excellent
edifice can accommodate comfortably
500 people."——New York Post. I
