Le Chrysler building, mon gratte-ciel préféré vendu pour 800M$

Le Chrysler building, sis au 405 Lexington Avenue à l'angle de la 42e rue au coeur de Manhattan est emblématique de New York. Le Devoir rapporte qu'il vient d'être acheté pour 800 millions de dollars par le fonds souverain des Émirats Arabes Uni Abu Dhabi Investment Council. Ce qu'ils vont en faire? Outre le prestige de s'en porter acquéreur, l'édifice rapporte le prix des loyers des compagnies qui l'occupent et pourrait éventuellement être revendu pour plus cher encore.

Sa construction achevée en 1930, l'immeuble de 77 étages et 319 mètres de l'architecte William Van Alen est une icône du mouvement architectural qu'on nomme art deco. On reconnaît ici ce style dans les longues lignes droites simples, dépouillées, coupées en angles droits, mais aussi par la célèbre flèche d'arches en acier inoxydable.

Cette transaction va faire grincer des dents certains new-yorkais. En effet, le rachat du Chrysler Building est symbolique de la vague de rachats de trésors immobiliers américains par des investisseurs des pays pétroliers.

Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a
few months of hard work due to no data backup.
Do you have any methods to protect against hackers?

I am starting up a online blog directory and was wondering if I can submit your site?
I'm trying to mature my directory slowly by hand so that it retains high quality. I will make sure and put your blog in the appropriate category and I'll also
use, "Blogger: D�pôt des productions scolaires de Jean Desjardins" as your anchor text.
Please make sure to let me know if this is okay with you by e-mailing me at:
candraruby@arcor.de. Appreciate it

Hey, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog site in Opera, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, fantastic blog!

Hi this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering
if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with
HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and
tested to see if it can survive a thirty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.

My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.
I know this is completely off topic but I had to
share it with someone!
