3-MINUTE OVERVIEW

From Cass Gilbert’s neo-Gothic Woolworth Building (1913), whose architectural details had to be exaggerated dramatically to be seen from the street; to William Van Alen’s Chrysler Building (1930), with its winged radiator caps and chrome-like crown; to SOM’s military-strength One World Trade Center (2014), climbing to a symbolically rich height of 1,776ft, the skyscraper has been synonymous with New York’s prowess as a global business centre for more than a century.
