Car and Driver is based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, but the mothership is a little taller. And more urban. And now you can tour it via drone.
The Hearst Tower is now an entrenched part of the New York City skyline—a 46-story building designed by architect Norman Foster, who leads you through it with this drone footage captured on the tenth anniversary of the building's topping out.
While the Tower looks thoroughly modern—and it is—the six-story base is the façade of the original HQ, the International Magazine Building, itself a Joseph Urban–designed landmark that was completed in 1926.
