I like this style a lot. Skyscrapers 😊 Modern feel.

Jenneke is spot on! The "Empire State" look.

It’s sure lovely!

My two caveats:
1) I'm wrong many times a day --just ask my wife!
2) Always seeking to learn more

Makes sense, Art Deco had an important influence on early 20th century skyscraper architecture. Big impact design always goes deep, influencing the tiniest of objects, like a Baguette, while also influencing the largest of stuff... like buildings.
