<p>The Pabst Building was a 14-story <a href="/facts/Gothic_Revival_architecture/gWJmqCH1">neo-gothic</a> high-rise building in <a href="/facts/Milwaukee/Ucx5PVHn">Milwaukee</a>, <a href="/facts/Wisconsin/XvyqH6vN">Wisconsin</a>. Built in 1891, it was Milwaukee's first skyscraper, and was the tallest building in Milwaukee until the <a href="/facts/Milwaukee_City_Hall/dta6qEVN">Milwaukee City Hall</a> was finished four years later. The Pabst Building was demolished in 1981 and the <a href="/facts/100_East_Wisconsin/l95tqlHf">100 East Wisconsin Building</a> now occupies its site. Having stood at 235-foot (72 m) tall, the Pabst Building is the 2nd tallest building ever demolished in Wisconsin. </p>
