FEBRUARY 2025 DID YOU KNOW? EMPIRE STATE BUILDING WORD SEARCH ANTENNAE BUILDING CHRYSLER ELEVATOR ELF EMPIRE STATE KING KONG NEW YORK OBSERVATORY RASKOB SKYSCRAPER SMITH SUPERMAN TELESCOPIC WWII Construction began in March 1930 and was completed in just one year and 45 days – it officially opened for business in May 1931. It cost approximately $40 million to build, which would be around $700 million today, adjusted for inflation. The Empire State Building has 6,514 windows. Fourteen workers died (five from falls) during its construction, which is low, considering the era and the size and complexity of the project. Cornell University researchers analyzed millions of photos and concluded that the Empire State Building is one of the most photographed buildings in the world. The observation deck is often illuminated with different colors to commemorate holidays, special events, or awareness campaigns. During WWII, the Empire State Building was blacked out at night to prevent enemy aircraft from identifying the city. It’s one of the most iconic landmarks in the world and was featured in films like King Kong (the 1933 version), An Affair to Remember, Superman II and Elf. Security to enter the building is similar to what takes place at the airport: it’s manned 24 hours a day, seven days a week and protected by state-of-the-art security equipment. With over 2.8 million rentable square feet, the building has its very own ZIP code: 10118.                                          €   ‚ƒ  „……†   ‚„€   ‡    ˆ             ƒ            ‰  †    „       Š „               ‹ Œ‡†€ ‡Ž SAY WHAT?
