Located in Midtown Manhattan, the Empire State Building stands at 1,454 feet tall with a roof height of 1,250 feet and was named after the nickname for New York, which is ‘the Empire State.’ Designed by Shreve, Lamb & Harmon and completed in 1931, the 102-story Empire State Building is located on the west side of Fifth Avenue between West 33rd and 34th Streets and was built on a site that was originally part of an early 18th-century farm.
Today, the Empire State Building is synonymous with New York City and is one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World, complete with its very own postcode! On a clear day, visitors can marvel at views of up to 80 miles on a clear day, which include Central Park, New Jersey, Manhattan, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts.
