Chrysler Building

Chrysler Building er ein skyskrapar i New York. Den 319 meteren høge bygningen stod ferdig i 1930, og var den høgaste bygningen i verda i nesten eitt år, inntil Empire State Building nokre kvartal lenger vest på Manhattan stod ferdig i 1931.

Chrysler Building vart designa av William van Alen for den amerikanske bilprodusenten Chrysler. Bygningen er eit av dei fremste eksempla på Art Deco-stilen, og blir av mange sett på som den vakraste bygningen i New York. Med sin karakteristiske skinande topp i rustfritt stål, er Chrysler-bygningen òg ein av dei mest dominerande landemerka i byen. Utforminga av den dekorative toppdelen var dessutan inspirert av hjulkapslane på Chrysler-bileane på 1920-talet.

Til forskjell frå Empire State Building, er Chrysler-bygningen ikkje open for publikum.

For a sans-tourist view of the NYC skyline, tell security you're going to Zen Dentistry on the 69th floor. Once there, ask if they take your insurance. While they research, enjoy the view & take pics

No observation deck. My dentist is on the 69th floor so here’s a peek of the view. The lobby elevator only takes you up to a transfer point on 57 floor; there’s a smaller elevator to get near the top.

The lobby still has that old-world New York style. Take a shortcut through the lobby to admire the nice art deco motifs. Being a prominent building, security guards can be strict in matters of access

Once world's tallest building and a NYC icon, Chrysler Building is a gorgeous Art Deco style skyscraper with all of the elegance and grandeur you'd expect from a Midtown Manhattan's building

Восхищающая махина. Однозначно один из символов краеугольных города

Aunque la altura del Empire State hace que se lleve casi toda la fama, el edificio Chrysler es el rascacielos favorito de gran parte de los neoyorquinos y de muchos visitantes.
