A wonderful look at the construction workers who built the Chrysler Building in New York City. Filmed during 1929-1930, these scenes from Fox Movietone’s sound cameras remind us of a time when risk was an accepted part of working in construction. I never ceased to be amazed by the extreme daring that is displayed by these men in a casual manner as they work without safety lines. Be sure to watch Lunch Atop A Skyscraper to learn more about an iconic photo of the construction workers from this era.
