Chrysler Building by William Van Alen
This building is monumental in New York City, and it always
has been. New York being one of my favorite cities I love this building. It is
one of the tallest buildings in New York City and it is an icon for it. When
architecture goes from just another building to an icon and a trademark is when
I think it has really reached another level. It then becomes legend and
important to all people, not just architects or artists. Buildings are true
art.
I think this piece should be presented with other
skyscrapers that were influenced by it. The skyscraper, One Liberty
Place in Philadelphia, was directly influenced by the
Chrysler and I think for this architecture in particular it would be fantastic
to present with something that came from it. That was influenced by it. Instead of something that influenced the
Chrysler, present it with something that it influenced, that would be a cool
concept. The One Liberty Place would be amazing next to the Chrysler to see the
shape and detail that noth buldings make and how it was inspired by our one and
only Chrysler Building.
