Initially the Home Insurance Building had ten floors and was 138 feet tall. Constructors added a further two stories in 1890. Before Americans built this first skyscarper, some people were worried about the elevators and they thought that they would fall. This changed when a man called Mr. Otis discovered how to make elevators safe for everyone to use. Another man named William LeBaron Jenney found out how to use steel beams for the skeleton of the building when every other building then was made of bricks inside and out. Constructors finished the Home Insurance Building in 1885, but unfortunately demolished it in 1931. Everybody believes the Home Insurance Building id the first skyscraper in the world because it was the first building which was completely supported by a steel frame.
