i worked here for a few years and often got emotional just entering it (dramatic i know!!), it is just such a marvel, truly emblematic of the city/iconic, visiting the top was always such an adventure, also my fav part was that there are these murals throughout the lobby (mainly the ceiling but also the reception desk wall and in the elevators) that feature gears in celestial formations it is extremely steampunk!!!!

I’m a sucker for anything art deco, especially exploring Rockefeller Center with it’s easter eggs and grand as hell murals, but the Chanin building at 122 E 42nd st is beautiful for its detail. Especially the bronze friezes of fish and coral. I like creatures in the concrete and steel.

Constantly passed by these buildings my whole life, would love to do a deep dive into how these gorgeous marvels were designed and constructed, how they’ve managed to remain in spite of countless other eras (ie brutalism) overtaking the culture, and how it’s influenced the landscape of NYC as a whole.
