More Information About Final Jeopardy!:
(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2026 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
The art deco Chrysler Building, which competed for the title of World's Tallest Building with 40 Wall Street and the Empire State building in New York City, housed the Chrysler Automobile Salon from 1936 until the 1960s, essentially it was a two-floor public exhibition of Chrysler vehicles in New York. While Walter Chrysler himself had an apartment in the building, and the Chrysler corporation had offices in the building over the years, the building was never designed to serve as the automaker's headquarters, which stayed in Detroit.
To me, the reference to the showroom + Manhattan building is enough for this to be a straightforward road to the correct response.
