As better construction and engineering technology became available as the century progressed, New York became the focal point of the competition for the tallest building in the world.


The city's striking skyline has been composed of numerous and varied skyscrapers, many of which are icons of 20th-century architecture. The [[Flatiron Building]], standing 285 ft (87 meters) high, was one of the tallest buildings in the city upon its completion in 1902, made possible by its steel skeleton.  It was one of the first buildings designed with a steel framework, and to achieve this height with other construction methods of that time would have been very difficult. The [[Woolworth Building]], a neo-Gothic "Cathedral of Commerce" overlooking City Hall, was designed by [[Cass Gilbert]].  At 792 feet (241 meters), it became the world's tallest building upon its completion in 1913, an honor it retained until 1930, when it was overtaken by [[40 Wall Street]]. That same year, the [[Chrysler Building]] took the lead as the tallest building in the world, scraping the sky at 1,046 feet (319 m).  More impressive than its height is the building's design, by [[William Van Alen]].  An [[art deco]] masterpiece with an exterior crafted of brick, the Chrysler Building continues to be a favorite of New Yorkers to this day.
