Over 1,454-ft tall, the gleaming Empire State Building permeates New York’s city skyline day and night, it’s façade a comforting and enduring sight in a city that’s forever reinventing itself. Built in just 410 days during the Great Depression, from it’s completion in 1930 this limestone tower was a point of pride among downtrodden New Yorkers in times of social and economic hardship. Some 87 years on, and while the times have changed, the Heart of New York remains – with locals and travellers alike revelling in this mighty monument and all it represents in modern-day America. The queues to the top may be notorious, but exploring one of the most iconic buildings in New York is well worth it.
