Empire State Building
The Empire State Building, the 'Eighth Wonder' of the modern world is a vibrant, exciting component of New York City. It is both a commercial skyscraper, with over 900 tenants, and a symbol of New York. A National Landmark, this world famous Building was completed in 1931: just 1 year and 45 days after its construction began!
Soaring 443 metres (1,454 feet) in mid-town Manhattan, the Empire State Building offers inspiring King Kong views around the horizon night and day. On a clear day, visitors can see five states from the indoor 102nd floor Observatory and the outside promenade of the 86th floor Observatory.
