Chrysler Building

Chrysler Building

Architecture • New York City, New York United States

An Art Deco skyscraper and one of the tallest skyscrapers in New York City. For a short period of time (11 months) before the Empire State Building was finished in 1931, it actually was the tallest building in New York.

It was built for the Chrysler company (though the company no longer has its headquarters there) and the Chrysler-related features were embedded into its design.

There are 77 floors in total and 32 elevators. The building appears in many films (e.g. Men in Black III).

Only the lobby is open to the public, the rest of the building is unfortunately not accessible to tourists. Despite that, the building is definitely worth seeing since it is a true gem of Art Deco style.

Midtown NYC Movie & TV Walking Tour With or Without Smart Glasses

You know these scenes. You've just never stood inside them. Iron Man flies into his tower behind Grand Central, and Cary Grant slips through the same concourse in North by Northwest. The Chrysler Building appears in Men in Black 3. The city freezes around the Public Library in The Day After Tomorrow, and The Devil Wears Prada plays out in the park behind it. In Home Alone 2, Kevin finds his mother in the Rockefeller plaza. The Beatles walk onto The Ed Sullivan Show. Taxi Driver shows you the Broadway that no longer exists — and King Kong is still hanging over the skyline. I'm Eloi Gerard. I guided in Hollywood and Downtown Los Angeles for years, and before that I worked as a filmmaker. I built the smart-glass platform this tour runs on, because a photo of a filming location never convinced anybody — you have to see the film where it happened. That idea is the whole tour.
