The Chrysler Building stands today as the product of a competition between various New York City businessmen and philanthropists to build the tallest skyscraper in the world. The Chrysler Building eventually achieved this lofty goal in 1929, although success was bittersweet as in 1930 the Empire State Building quickly stole the title away. Despite losing its distinction as the tallest building in the world, the Chrysler Building still stands as an important New York landmark and masterful display of the era's Art Deco architectural design.
The lavish building presents a number of stunning sights to visitors of New York City, such as its silver-colored gargoyle eagles that perch upon the building. When you visit the Chrysler Building you're definitely in store to experience a piece of history and an unsurpassed view of the New York City skyline from the building's observation level.
