Several technological developments converged at the end of the nineteenth century including electric light (1879) and steel frame with exterior curtain wall construction.

That time of year when the sun is lowest on the horizon and we wonder if spring will ever come again.  December 21st, the winter solstice is anchored in the very connection of our planet to the heavens.
