NYC's Skyscraper Top 10

Over the summer the Skyscraper Museum asked 100 architects and other builder machers to vote on their favorite skyscrapers from a list of 25, and then came up with a top 10 from the results. As Gothamist points out, it's a great shortlist of all the must-sees in the city. An exhibit tied into the list, called Favorites, opened at the Skyscraper Museum today.

Here's the list, starting with the most popular:

• Chrysler Building
  
• Seagram Building
  
• Flatiron Building
  
• Woolworth Building
  
• Empire State Building
  
• Lever House
  
• RCA Building
  
• McGraw-Hill
  
• U.N. Secretariat
  
• CBS Building (AKA "Black Rock"; pictured at right)
