The Woolworth Building, possibly among the most beautiful skyscrapers ever built. I'm not much into the Skyscraper Gothic style, but the Woolworth Building is just in a class by itself, as an example of a sine qua non archetype of a style par excellence along with Chrysler, ESB, Pan Am, Seagram, and PSFS here in Philly.
