    ***************************************************
    Today we visit the EMPIRE STATE BUILDING -- A 102-story skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. The EMPIRE STATE BUILDING is one of the most famous budlings in the world, thanks to it's appearance in different films, shows and other media (this is the building that King Kong climbs in the movies). It is an iconic and popular destination to visit in New York City. In this video I take you through the exhibition displays all the way to the 86th and 102th observation decks. The goal is to tell you more about the location and show you what you can see and do if you decide to visit.
    Hope you enjoy!

    The Empire State Building is my favorite building in the world! I went up to both observatories several years ago. I went up at night and took a selfie on the 102nd floor, with Times Square lit up down below behind me. It was worth it.
    One of the early concepts for the 102nd floor was that it would be a docking place for airships, like those huge zeppelins of the 1920s and 1930s. But it was too windy that high up so that idea was scrapped. But how cool would it have been to board an airship like that.

    Extremely worth it, I went to the USA for the first time in may for my birthday and I called my mom from the 102nd floor back in the UK.
    I want to become an American citizen one day, the New Yorkers were so kind to me.

      86th obervation deck is 1050 feet above the street. 102 floor level is about 1235 feet up, with the roof over the 103 floor machine room at 1250 feet, and the antenna goes to 1472 ft.

    Great video tour. And yes this is a good tourist spot one should visit. Empire State Building is a art deco master design with great views from all sides. Once was the tallest building in the world back in the industrial boom of America.

      Hi there, so, going there during the sunset costs extra. That is a special "experience" they offer on their website. I recommend you visit their website to see how much and what time you have to arrive.

    There's a 103rd floor which has severely restricted access and then above that a 104th floor in which only technicians are allowed to enter (The guys who service the electronic equipped connected to the transmission mast on top of the building.

    OMG ! $80.00 😱
    It's been a long time since I've been up there but 80 dollars is a lot of money , I think I spent $12.00 in the 80s and the only thing that changed since was bigger windows and some more buildings around NYC , they should make it more family friendly by lowering that price . Anyway ,,,,,,,
    Did you know the nickname for the empire state building was "" THE GORILLA BUILDING "" And back years ago they even had a giant gorilla shaped inflatable lashed on the side about mid way up .
    I still can't believe 80 dollars , so for two people 160 bucks plus souvenirs at the gift stand , I think for a few dollars more id take a helicopter ride around Manhattan .
    Thanks very much for sharing this video with us , I especially appreciate it because I no longer live in ny state and was curious 👍

    $245 for 3 people. That doesn't include state and local sales tax. Maybe $100 could be worth it but definitely not more.

    How much time do you need to visit the Empire State Building?

    • @EDDvlogs
      @EDDvlogs  Рік тому +1

      Depends on what you want to get out of it. If you want to go through all the exhibits, read all the stuff they got, I would say 1:30-2 hrs, but there are people who just go to the top floors as fast as they can, so you could do this in 30 mins, but no fun! haha

  • @williampennjr.4448
    @williampennjr.4448 Рік тому +1

    I don't understand how they justify these prices. Every historic structure in NYC cost around $50 plus tax. How does it cost more to maintain these sights than a pro sports game, a rock concert and a movie combined? It sure as hell isn't about demand since I never saw more than 5 people enter any of these places at the same time in the middle of a major holiday.
    and a bet half of them left right after getting sticker shock, like me.

    nice views are only for the rich in NYC,
    just like sporting events, parking, eating out. The middle class are suppose to take the subway with the bums and eatgreasyy fast food so we die younger.
