The Chrysler Building is an Art Deco skyscraper on the East Side of Manhattan, New York City. At 1,046 feet (319 m), it is the tallest brick building in the world with a steel framework, and was the world's tallest building for 11 months after its completion in 1930, but soon dethroned by the much taller Empire State Building. In 2019, the Chrysler was still the 11th-tallest building in the city, tied with The New York Times Building.
It was constructed by Walter Chrysler, the head of the Chrysler Corporation, specifically for the car manufacturer, but the corporation did not pay for its construction and never owned it. It was funded personally by the family, but they sold it on 1953 and it has had numerous owners since.
When it opened, there were mixed reviews about its design, ranging from "unoriginal" to "modernist and iconic". However, it is now seen as a paragon of the Art Deco architectural style. The building was designated a New York City landmark in 1978, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places as a National Historic Landmark in 1976.
It is undeniable that this building is an icon of New York City, of the United States as a whole, and of the modernity and progress of its time. It has been featured in countless movies, TV shows and plays, although always second to the Empire State Building, or later structures like the Twin Towers of the WTC. (from Wikipedia).
