Chrysler Building - art. The Chrysler Building (1930) in New York City is considered the quintessential example of art deco architecture. It was designed by William Van Alen, who was inspired in part by cubist art and machine forms. The building, which rises in a series of narrowing arches to the stainless steel spire on top, is 319 m (1,046 ft) tall. It was the tallest building in the world for one year, before the Empire State Building surpassed it. Nicholas Pitt/Getty Images
