Krasse Drohnenaufnahmen der schönsten Art-Déco-Wolkenkratzer

Wolkenkratzer bieten zwar eine top Aussicht, dafür kann man die oberen Etagen aber meistens nur von ganz weit unten bestaunen. Schade, so verpasst man die Details.

Um uns endlich Hochhäuser auf Augenhöhe zu präsentieren ist Chris Hytha durch die USA gereist und hat berühmte Wolkenkratzer mit einer HD-Drohne fotografiert. Die Details sind wirklich beeindruckend.

Besonders interessant ist das bei Art-Déco-Wolkenkratzern aus dem frühen 20. Jahrhundert. Die sind oft mit extrem aufwändigen Spitzen versehen.

Auf Twitter präsentiert Hyta seine Favoriten aus der Liste (Tweets mit Antworten, also bitte nach unten scrollen):

2. Foshay Tower in Minneapolis, MN.

The illuminated "FOSHAY" sign is hard to miss when visiting the Twin Cities. The building was inspired by the Washington Monument, and was commissioned by a con man. pic.twitter.com/y4Gkj7OUmV

3. Genesee Valley Trust Building in Rochester, NY.

I was shocked when I discovered this building. Somehow I had never heard of it, even after 6 years of architecture school. Such a unique and iconic aluminum spire. pic.twitter.com/yKkdKtYMT2

4. Buffalo City Hall in Buffalo, NY.

Zoom in to the image below to appreciate the massive stone eagles perched on the top of this Highrise. The colorful details borrow some Native American motifs. pic.twitter.com/FX4RdTn7pR

5. Last but not least, the Eastern Columbia Building in Los Angeles, CA.

Distinct for it's blue terracotta facade, this Highrise embodies the spirit of the roaring 20s, and the showmanship of Los Angeles. pic.twitter.com/woNIMYgXwk

Honorable Mention – The Guardian Building in Detroit, MI.

The architect said he was inspired by a trip to Barcelona where he studied Gaudi's work. The influence shows! pic.twitter.com/B71cwrdK1K
