The movement toward skeletal architecture increased in the late nineteenth century.
Architects and engineers worked in the direction of a curtain wall, which is a building held up by an interior framework and an exterior wall made of glass or steel.
The emphasis was on the vertical due to increasing land values in modern cities.
Tall pilasters were used to emphasize verticality and windows were set back behind them.
The Chicago School made the greatest advances in architecture after the Great Fire of 1871.
