the Chrysler building
The Chrysler building (by William van Alen, 1930) in New York City (NY, USA) was the highest (317,7 m) building in the world 1930-1931. It's one of the last skyscrapers in the Art Deco style. The gargoyles depict Chrysler car ornaments and the spire is modeled on a radiator grille. It has been restored in 1995 and it glitters again like it must have in the thirties. 2003-08-10.
