American Radiator Building, Art Deco skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, United States

The American Radiator Building features black brick walls decorated with gold terracotta elements across its twenty-three stories, reaching 103 meters in height.

Raymond Hood and André Fouilhoux designed this structure in 1924, marking a transition from classical Beaux-Arts style to modern architectural approaches.

Georgia O'Keeffe captured the building's dark silhouette and illuminated windows in her painting Radiator Building - Night, New York.
