I guess I don’t know my skyscrapers. It’s the second from the right.in this great old photo.
Are you certain that’s NYC? I don’t recognize it, but then again I’m not an NYC expert. How do you know it’s NYC?
Right click “search Google for this image”.
Probably the fact that the file is called “NYC_skyline_Dec_1941.”
Here it is on Shorpy though they don’t name the building. “Lower Manhattan seen from the S.S. Coamo leaving New York.”
I was bored, so I went through the list of tallest buildings in NYC on Wikipedia. Looks like it’s 20 Exchange Place, formerly the City Bank-Farmers Trust Building. CoStar | # 1 Commercial Real Estate Information Company
Yes, that’s 20 Exchange Place.
