What Makes NYC’s Skyline So Iconic? 17 Buildings to Know
When it comes to recognizable skylines, New York City’s tops the list. The Big Apple is known for its many impressive architectural firsts and—in the opinion of critic Eric P. Nash, author of forthcoming book Sky-High: A Critique of NYC’s Supertall Towers from Top to Bottom (Princeton Architectural Press, $40)—perhaps some hopeful architectural lasts. Though Chicago may have invented the skyscraper, New York made it famous, and then took it to its extreme with the advent of the super-tall. These pencil-thin towers are new points of interest in the built landscape. But they are also highly visible markers of exorbitant wealth, the power of real estate, and architectural innovation.

“The mixed-use, sky-high super-tall is the building typology of the twenty-first century,” writes Nash in Sky-High. “Except for museum-building, which carries an aura of prestige, few hotshot architects are concentrating on anything else.” In New York City, those hotshots include Adrian Smith and Gordon Gill, James von Klemperer of Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates, and SHoP Architects, many of whom have created towers for the city’s now notorious Billionaire’s Row on 57th Street. Super-talls and their historic neighbors have helped shape the iconic urban silhouette we associate with the city today. Below, explore what led to their rise.30 Hudson Yards
Since their advent on the skyline in 2019, the towers...
Controversial when it opened in 2015 for its height and design, the 1,396-foot-tall residential tower by Rafael Viñoly was the tallest in the world for a short time and marked one of the first in today’s proliferation of super-talls in New York City. Rising from a square floor plate, its concrete façade forms a lattice of square windows across all 84 stories, including a series of open air double height mechanical spaces which allow wind to pass through the building and help reduce its sway. In 2021, the condominium’s board sued the developers, CIM Group and Macklowe Properties, after discovering that the building had not been designed to Viñoly’s plans, causing mechanical issues that are now plaguing many skyscrapers around the globe.One World Trade Center
After the tragic terrorist attacks of 9/11, New York City was committed to rebuilding the downtown World Trade Center complex as a symbol of the resilience of the city. After an architectural competition that awarded Daniel Libeskind the winning design, developer Larry Silverstein ultimately chose David Childs of SOM as the architect for the pared-back tower constructed today. At 1,776 feet with its spire—a symbolic number in correspondence to the year the US signed the Declaration of Independence—the office tower is currently the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere.Empire State Building
If you see this building’s signature spire, you know you’re looking at New York City. The 102-story Art Deco skyscraper by Shreve, Lamb, and Harmon was completed in 1931 and stood as the city’s tallest until 2012. Clad in decorative limestone, its form was revised multiple times as it raced to be the world’s tallest building and its observation decks on the 80th, 86th, and 102nd floors continue to call to visitors from around the globe today.Chrysler Building
Designed by architect William Van Alen and completed just one year prior to the Empire State Building, this iconic Art Deco tower was not always as beloved on the New York City skyline as it is today. Commissioned by Walter Chrysler of the eponymous car company, it was the first skyscraper to have a decorative, non-functional top, resulting in mixed reviews by architectural critics. Though the Empire State took its crown as NYC’s tallest after just 11 months, the Chrysler Building still holds the title of world’s tallest brick building with a steel frame.
