Stainless Steel And Modern Architecture
By far the most well-known use of stainless steel in modern architecture though, is perfect for its luster and visual appeal. The Chrysler Building in The Big Apple City may be the chief early example of employing stainless steel plate for its aesthetic attributes. It proves the superiority of stainless steel material used externally since today, almost one hundred years later, the stainless steel of this world famous building is at near pristine condition.

By far probably the most well-known use of stainless steel in modern architecture though, is for its luster and visual appeal. Louis, Missouri. The Chrysler Building was the very first large scale use of stainless steel and was completed in 1930. Also, like the Chrysler Building, the steel used within the Arch is always to this day still in excellent condition, effortlessly maintaining its striking visual appeal.
