1. MODERN ICONS
Conceived during the roaring twenties, the Chrysler Building (1930) and the Empire State Building (1931) are distinguished by monumental illuminated spires that have become New York architectural trademarks. Dubbed the 8th Wonder of the World, the Empire State Building stood as the world’s tallest building for nearly 40 years and has inspired modern skylines around the world.
