  • Since ground break in 2016, EarthCam has been working alongside the developer of One Vanderbilt, SL Green Realty Corp. to document the 67-floor, fluted terra-cotta glass exterior skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan. It took over 48 camera angles, 8 wide screen multi layered panoramas and 2.5 million images to deliver this epic time-lapse movie.
    "Our fleet of cameras from different vantage points across the city enabled us to capture incredible footage of our tower becoming a permanent part of the New York City skyline.” Edward V. Piccinich, Chief Operating Officer at SL Green Realty Corp.
    Watch as Midtown’s tallest commercial tower earns its place as a 'shining beacon' on the New York City skyline in minutes with this official EarthCam time-lapse

    It's a very pretty building and I love the way it's façade looks, I do feel sorry for the Chrysler Building seeing as how it's kinda being obstructed by other structures, But I do like this one a lot, I have nothing against modern buildings, I only find some to be too futuristic for it's location. This building is mighty fine

      It's about to get much, much worse. At least One Vanderbilt is a triumph. 175 Park Ave - The supertall going up on the other side of Grand Central and across the street from Chrysler is MASSIVE (~160 feet taller than One Vanderbilt) and hideous. Much bulkier. It will obstruct the Chrysler building completely from many angles. Not long before Chrysler is just a blip on the radar unfortunately

    😍! When I was in New York with my family in June 2017, One Vanderbilt wasn’t at street level yet, the old building was already demolished as I could not see it, but I;m happy that it’s now completed and seen within the New York City skyline. Can’t wait for the observatory to open in October this year! If COVID-19 ends, maybe we can go back to New York again and come here!

      Yeah. I love both of them, but One Vanderbilt's size dwarfs the Chrysler building, and is literally 2 blocks away. The combination of these factors takes the Chrysler Building's local dominance away, which is kind of sad.
      It would be worse if the proposed 175 Park Avenue gets built. Not only is it overall a lot bigger than One Vanderbilt with a taller height, it is literally across the street from the Chrysler Building where the Hyatt Grand Central New York is. (The black glass one with an "H" shape. It would look nice in Western Midtown near Hudson Yards, but I do not like it in its current position despite its overall pleasing design. It truly overwhelms the historic structure.

    Holy cow! I always wondered how they tore down skyscrapers to build new ones in its place, especially in congested cities such as NYC! They physically deconstruct it floor-by-floor! Incredible!
    Before, I thought they would simply blow it up but then was trying to figure how the city would allow that, how would they prevent the inevitable smoke and debris from filling up the nearby areas. I couldn’t figure it out.
    I’m sure they’re able to recycle some of the building material by deconstructing it instead of blowing it up. I wonder if it’s quicker for them to deconstruct the building than actually build it? I figure it like tinkering with electronics, it’s easier to take apart than to put back together, haha.

The Empire State and the Chrysler Buildings appeared close enough to touch. Manhattan and the other boroughs as well as New Jersey shone like jewels. And the Moon and Venus hung in the eastern sky. The only detraction is the onerous entry procedure, but once you're upstairs it's wonderful. I came here looking for a webcam and found this time-lapse of the construction. Almost as good as the views.
