Today -100: July 12, 1911: Of skyscrapers
Plans have been drawn up, not necessarily seriously, for a 100-story building in NYC. (However, the tallest... actually I don’t know what the tallest existing building was in 1911, but the foundation had just been laid for the 57-story Woolworth Building.)
(Update: It was the Met Life Tower.)
