The Empire State Building is a 102-story Art Deco skyscraper in Midtown, 1,250 feet to the roof and 1,454 feet with its antenna, the world's tallest building until the World Trade Center rose in 1970. It stands on the site of the old Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, between West 33rd and 34th streets on Fifth Avenue, and its Indiana limestone facade gives it a blonde color. About four million tourists visit its observatories each year, and it has appeared in more than 250 films and TV shows.
