One of the massive Art Deco eagles on the 61st floor of the iconic Chrysler Building in Midtown Manhattan, May 6th, 1931. Many aspects of the building's exterior design purposely incorporated elements of Chrysler automobiles including stylized hood ornaments, hubcaps and fenders created using brick and steel. The Waldorf Astoria Hotel and the GE Building can be seen in the background while the eagle looms overhead.

Ascend to the 31st floor, where gargoyles meet stunning replicas of the iconic 1929 Chrysler radiator caps. Finally, witness the majestic 61st floor, crowned with eagles in proud homage to America's national bird.
