Her: Wanna Netflix and chill?

Me: I got just the perfect movie

[Breathtaker]

One of the best channels on YouTube. Hands down.

Great production as always Fred. The Chrysler Building was always New York’s quiet beauty. Yes! New York is the center of American skyscraper power. Chicago is second although better layout than Manhattan.

I love these end of year hours-long videos. Job well done in 2024, B1M. Looking forward to the phenomenal videos of 2025. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Love your videos! They are well researched, articulately presented and easy to follow for someone who has no understanding of math, science or the mechanics of contruction - my interest in buildings is purely aesthetic. Your videos on civil projects also helps to flesh out the world in which I live. I was lucky to visit New York recently, and OMG, what a awe-inspiring place.

I saw the Twin Towers once from Hoboken across the Hudson. They were like two giant pins holding down Manhattan like a mounted butterfly. Every other building looked puny, unlike the normal aerial views.

[AnixCo]

The lower Manhattan extension really needs to happen

[psyched]

It would be great to have a version of these video's in which the guests have more time to tell about the subject matter.

Love how the Original World Trade Centre rarely gets the lack of mention in your videos about New York Skyscrapers/Upcoming construction projects in general. We must remember them, and the crucial impact they've had on the modern development of skyscrapers today. Thank you for keeping them alive.

[PirateOfTheWastes]

I do hope this includes the Brooklyn Tower :)

[robertsavage]

I love the Chrysler Building, second only to St Pancras train Station in my opinion architecture wise.

[lukelu]

holy sh*t I didnt realize it's a 2-hour video until i saw the bar. nice work

[Alexgudmusic]

I watched the whole thing and don't regret it. Now that's something you should be proud of.

What a lovely addition to end 2024 on…New York, a shining example of America🇺🇸

[youmager]
