128 of the coolest old skyscraper in the USA. How many do you recognize? Here is a taste of the detail of each image. They are 8200px tall by 5500px wide. I create them by stitching several drone images together, then stylizing in Photoshop. One day I want to have a gallery where I can print them all 5' tall!

After a year of traveling the USA to document historic skyscrapers through high-res drone photography, here are my favorite Art Deco Buildings🧵 1. The Carbide and Carbon Building in Chicago, IL.

This is perhaps my favorite building in the country. The golden spire is so unique, and has captivated me since the day I saw it.
