It was the first building to use structural steel in its frame, but the majority of its structure was composed of cast and wrought iron. It was the first tall building to be supported, both inside and outside, by a fireproof metal frame. It had 10 stories and rose to a height of 138 feet (42 m) high.</strong></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="font-size: 10px"><strong></strong></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="font-size: 10px"><strong></strong></span></span><p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="font-size: 10px"><span style="color: DarkRed"><strong></strong></span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="font-size: 10px"><span style="color: DarkRed"><strong></strong></span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="font-size: 10px"><span style="color: DarkRed"><strong>10.
