The skyscraper, the airport and the the house are three examples of design on the building scale. These are iconic for the twentieth century because these are three things are all American lives revolve around nowadays. People are constantly traveling so airports are always jammed. Skyscrapers can be found all over the United States, especially in downtown areas like Chicago, Boston, New York City and Los Angeles. These cities have very iconic skyscrapers, like the Empire State Building in NYC. Skyscrapers represent business and, in the twentieth century, your career is everything! Houses surround us everywhere we go. They come in all different shapes and sizes, but is the one of the most important things to own if you're pursuing the American dream.
Another great example of an American character building besides a house, airport and skyscraper is a library!
