The 15-story Ingalls Building, completed in 1903, is recognized as the world's first reinforced concrete skyscraper.
At the time of construction, some skeptics believed that the radical new structure would fail to withstand high winds or even its own weight. Legend has it that as the building neared completion and its temporary supports were removed, a reporter stayed awake the whole night to get the scoop on the building's collapse.
Converted to a hotel in 2021, the Ingalls Building was designated a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark in 1974 and a National Historic Landmark in 1975.
