Empire State Building | TicketBarato

The Empire State Building is a skyscraper in New York city. The building is on the Fifth avenue between the 33rd and 34th street in Manhattan; the address is 350 Fifth avenue, New York, NY 10118. The construction lasted from the 17th of March, 1930 to the 1st of May, 1931 (410 working days). It was up to the opening of the World Trade centres in 1972 the highest building of the town and the earth. On a clear day one can see about 130 km far back in five US federal states (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Massachusetts). Up to now about 117 million people visited the building. In 1947 a 3-m-high fence was established around the view platform. Nevertheless, it comes there over and over again to suicides. The name is derived from the empire State, to a nickname of the US federal state New York.
