Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2 MB
Overview: Ironically, it took awhile for the Empire State Building to attract businesses, in large measure due to the fact it was built at the height of the Great Depression, but before long it became synonymous with New York City itself. The building has generated notorious headlines, such as when a B-25 bomber crashed into the building in 1945, and it has been featured in too many movies to count, including its most famous role in King Kong (1933) just a few years after its completion. Indeed, the Empire State Building continues to be not just an instantly identifiable landmark in New York City but also a crucially valuable one that is still visited and used by thousands of people a day. The Empire State Building: The History of New York City’s Most Iconic Landmark chronicles the construction and history of the Big Apple’s most famous building. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about the Empire State Building like never before, in no time at all.
