New York Office Buildings with Observation Decks
New York Office Buildings with Observation Decks were located throughout Manhattan during the 20th Century. They included: Flatiron Building- 175 Fifth Avenue; Chrysler Building- 405 Lexington Avenue; Citibank Building- 20 Exchange Place; and the Cities Service Building- 70 Pine Street; For a photo-rich examination of this grand era link to The New Yorker Magazine article “Top of the Town”, HERE.
