Description
It’s no longer the tallest in the world but the Empire State Building is the ancestor to all supertall skyscrapers today. Holding the record for forty years—from 1931 to 1971—the site was auspicious before the Empire State Building. Learn how it was erected in record time during the Great Depression, and why it’s still the most photographed building in the world. Hear fun facts and interesting stories behind New York’s most recognizable building.
