In 1998, wherever you looked, you could see the Chrysler Building. From the vantage point of the Greater East River\\u002F Flushing Bay, Photographer Mitchell Funk captures the Chrysler Building in silhouette. It is defined by strong lighting that increases it's dramatic effect. A passing barge stacked with containers dominates the foreground space.
