Well, my scratch-paper estimates suggest that the Great Pyramid has well over six times the volume of the Chrysler Building. Considering that the Great Pyramid is very nearly a solid structure, and the Chrysler Building consists of a lot of empty space to accomodate people...the answer should be intuitively obvious ;)
