The Empire State Building is an amazing 102 story landmark Art Deco skyscraper situated in New York City. The name is derived from the nickname for New York, the Empire State. For over forty years, this building stood as the tallest building in the world. Completed in 1931, the building became the tallest building again after the destruction of the World Trade Center in 2001. The site has also been featured in many of the Hollywood films. One such famous film was the classic King Kong in 1933. Designed in Art Deco style, the building was designated as National Historic Landmark in 1986. This building is owned and entirely managed by W & H Properties.
