The tallest skyscraper in New York City, The Empire State Building offers panoramic city vistas.
This iconic 102-storey Art Deco building was completed in 1931, and The American Society of Civil Engineers has named it one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. The Empire State Building was the tallest building in the world for over 40 years and, since the World Trade Centre's destruction, it is once again New York City's tallest structure. It gained its name from the state of New York's nickname, The Empire State.
