An all-access tour of New York City's 1046-foot-tall landmark funded by the automotive tycoon Walter P. Chrysler and bearing his name, which is universally regarded as one of the finest physical expressions of the art deco form. Extensive photos and rare footage document its construction, and experts detail the deception that let Chrysler claim the sought-after title of "world's tallest building," if only briefly.
