The Empire State Building is a 102-story Art Deco skyscraper on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. It opened on May 1, 1931 and works as two things at once — an office building and a visitor attraction, with two Observation Decks and a museum on the second and 80th floors.
The Empire State Building was completed on May 1, 1931. Construction began on March 17, 1930, so the whole build took one year and 45 days. The steel frame went up at about four and a half stories a week to reach 102 stories.
The Empire State Building was developed by Empire State, Inc., a company formed in 1929 by John Jakob Raskob. Coleman du Pont, Pierre S. du Pont, Louis G. Kaufman, and Ellis P. Earle were his partners in it. Alfred E. Smith, the former Governor of New York, was named to head the corporation. Shreve, Lamb, & Harmon Associates were the architects, Starrett Bros. & Eken were the builders.
The Empire State Building was built as a speculative office tower, originally intended to be the world's first building of more than 100 stories. Its backers bought the original location of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in 1928 and had the hotel demolished to make room. The 102 stories they finished in 1931 made it the world's tallest building for the next forty years.
The Empire State Building is owned and operated by Empire State Realty Trust, a publicly traded real estate investment trust. It has been held by the same ownership group since 1961, when Lawrence A. Wien, Peter L. Malkin and Harry B. Helmsley bought it for $65 million. At that point the highest price ever paid for a single building.
The Empire State Building is famous for opening in 1931 as the world’s tallest building and for the Art Deco design that made it New York’s most famous building. Cornell researchers named it the most photographed building in the world in 2011, and more than 2.5 million visitors still come to see it every year.
