The Empire State Building

NEW YORK CITY 🇺🇸

Empire State Building


The Empire State Building is an Art Deco skyscraper in New York City’s Midtown Manhattan. It was designed by Shreve, Lamb & Harmon, and it was built between 1930 and 1931. Its name is taken from the nickname “Empire State” given to the state of New York. The structure stands 443.2 meters tall, including its antenna (or 381 m, without the antenna).

Until the World Trade Center was built in 1970, the Empire State Structure was the world’s highest building. By 2021, the Empire State Building is the fifth-highest in New York City, behind One World Trade Center (541.3 m), Central Park Tower (472.44 m), One Vanderbilt (427 m), 432 Park Avenue Condominiums (425.7 m), and the 30 Hudson Yards (387.1 m)!
