Chrysler building

yes, I took this picture.  nbd.

this is easily my favorite building in new york.  i love catching glimpses of it from places you wouldn't normally expect to (the top of kimmel for example).  an interesting fact about the chrysler building is that nobody died while building it during the late 1920s.  when it was completed, it was the tallest building in the world for 11 months, until it was eventually surpassed by the empire state building.
