Description
Empire State Building At Night. What an amazing historical landmark! This photo was taken during my 2013 Thanksgiving Holiday vacation in NYC. This famous landmark is absolutely stunning! There are two different night time view colorings; one is red/orangy/gold and the other is this beautiful blue/gold. Both equally beautiful. A must-see for everyone that visits NYC.
The Empire State Building (ESB) is a NYC skyscraper that stands at a 103-stories high. It was completed in May 1931. ESB is located in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and West 34th Street. It was the tallest building in the world up until the completion of the first tower of the Trade Center, which was completed in 1972 in Lower Manhattan.
Standing at 1,472 feet, the official opening of the ESB took place on May 1, 1931, by President Herbert Hoover, who pressed a button in Washington, D.C. to turn on the building's lights.
The exterior of the building is made of Indiana limestone and granite, trimmed with aluminum and chrome-nickel steel from the 6th floor to the top. The interior high lobby ceiling is made of marble imported from France, Italy, Belgium and Germany.
This is a highly recommended must-see landmark for all that visit the Big Apple! Emmy Vickers,

I felt honored and blessed to have been able to tour this phenomenal New York City landmark during my Thanksgiving holiday this year. The views are breathtaking. The stories and history of the making of this skyscraper is incredible. I highly recommend everyone who visits and lives in NYC, to take the time to visit this the one and only NYC Empire State Building.
