New York Architecture

Chanin Building: Steel frame. 56 floors, 207m (680 feet) high. Cost: $14,000,000
The steel frame is clad in buff brick and terra cotta and it is set back in conformance with the 1916 Zoning Law. The facade illustrates the introduction of colored glass, stone and metal on the exterior of tall buildings. Materials such as bronze, Belgian marble and terra-cotta are used here in an inventive and exuberant way.
