Discovering Empire State Building
The Empire State and the Statue of Liberty are by far the most iconic images of New York City. The famed skyscraper was built in 1931 and took only 18 months to complete during the Great Depression; it was the world's tallest building for 40 years from 1931 to 1972.Today the Empire State Building remains the highest skyscraper in Manhattan and the view from the observation deck located on the 102 floor is truly breathtaking.
At night the building is lit in different colours to celebrate the various seasonal holidays.
