THE FABULOUS CHRYSLER BUILDING

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CATHEDRAL OF COMMERCE IN THE WORLD

The Chrysler Building is renowned and recognized for its terraced crown. 

Composed of seven radiating terraced arches, Van Alen’s design of the crown is a cruciform groin vault constructed into seven concentric members with transitioning setbacks, mounted up one behind the other.
