    The document discusses the topic of skyscrapers and multi-storey buildings. It notes that two key developments in the mid-1800s enabled the construction of modern skyscrapers: the development of steel, which was strong yet light, and the invention of elevators in 1853. Chicago's Home Insurance Company Building, built in 1885, was one of the first skyscrapers to use a steel frame construction and stood at 10 stories tall. The document proposes building skyscrapers in Chennai to help address the rapid population growth and lack of living space through vertical construction.
