Empire State Building
In der weltberühmten Skyline Manhattans zieht vor allem ein Wolken-
kratzer alle Blicke auf sich: das Empire State Building. Im Jahre 1931 voll-
endet, nahm der Bau des bekannten Wahrzeichens von New York ledig-
lich 18 Monate in Anspruch. In dieser Rekordzeit wurden 60.000 t Stahl
und 10 Mio. Ziegelsteine verarbeitet sowie 5600 km Telefonkabel und
96 km Wasserleitungen verlegt.
Bis zum Jahre 1972 stand das Empire State Building mit 381 m (mit An-
tenne: 443 m) an der Spitze der höchsten Gebäude der Welt. Für die-
sen Titel musste sich Architekt William Lamb damals jedoch mit einem
Trick behelfen, als 1929 das Chrysler Building überraschend durch eine
Krone weiter erhöht wurde: Auf den großen Turm mit einer Höhe von
320 m wurde ein kleinerer zweiter Turm errichtet, sodass das Empire
State Building nach Abschluss der Bauarbeiten den bisherigen Rekord-
halter, das Chrysler Building, um 62 m überragte.
Genutzt wird das Empire State Building hauptsächlich als Büro-
gebäude. Die jährlich 3 Mio. Touristen werden auf der Aussichts-
plattform in 320 m Höhe mit einem Ausblick von bis zu 80 km belohnt.
Empire State Building
Among the skyscrapers of the world-famous Manhattan skyline, the
one that attracts the most attention is The Empire State Building.
Completed in 1931, the construction of this New York City emblem
took only 18 months. In record time, 102 oors, 60,000 tons of steel
and 10 million bricks were processed and 5600 km (3480 miles) of
telephone cable and 96 km (60 miles) of water pipes were
installed. Until 1972, the Empire State Building, at 381 m (1250 ft)
high (443 m/1453 ft including the antenna), was one of the high-
est buildings in the world. The architect William Lamb had to come
up with a trick when the Chrysler Building was enhanced by a crown in
1929: A small second tower was built on top of the large tower of the
Empire State Building (measuring 320 m or 1050 ft) to ensure that the
Empire State Building would surpass the Chrysler Building by 62 m
(203 ft). The Empire State Building is used mostly as an offi ce building but
over 3 million tourists annually enjoy a view of up to 80 km (50 miles) on
the 86th fl oor observation deck 320 m (1050 ft) above ground.

Empire State Building
Dans le paysage de Manhattan, célèbre dans le monde entier, un des
gratte-ciel se détache des autres : l’Empire State Building. Achevée
en 1931, la construction de cet emblème new-yorkais a duré 18 mois.
60 000 t d’acier, 10 millions de briques, 5 600 km de câbles télépho-
niques et 96 km de canalisations d’eau ont été utilisés en un temps
record.
Jusqu’en 1972, l’Empire State Building et ses 381 m (443 m avec son
antenne) est resté le plus haut monument du monde. Mais pour con-
server son titre, l’architecte William Lamb eut cependant recours à une
astuce, lorsque le Chrysler Building fut surélevé de manière inattendue
par l’ajout d’une couronne en 1929 : il construisit une seconde tour, plus
petite, sur la grande tour de 320 m, si bien qu’à la fi n du chantier l’Empire
State Building dépassait le record du Chrysler Building de 62 m. L’Empire
State Building est essentiellement occupé par des bureaux. Les 3 milli-
ons de touristes qui visitent la tour chaque année peuvent admirer le
paysage jusqu’à 80 km, du haut de la plateforme panoramique située
à 320 m.
Empire State Building
Nella Skyline di Manhattan famosa in tutto il mondo, un edifi cio in par-
ticolare attira l’attenzione su di sé: si tratta dell’Empire State Building,
un edifi cio ultimato nel 1931 in soli 18 mesi, che è diventato un famoso
simbolo di New York. In questo tempo di costruzione da record sono state
impiegate 60.000 tonnellate di acciaio e 10 milioni di mattoni, posati
5600 km di cavi telefonici e 96 km di tubi dell’acqua.
Fino al 1972, l’Empire State Building con i suoi 381 metri di altezza (con
l’antenna 443 metri) è stato l’edifi cio più alto del mondo. Per raggiungere
questo primato, però, il suo architetto William Lamb dovette usare un
piccolo stratagemma, poiché nel 1929 l‘edifi cio Chrysler Building a sor-
presa era stato dotato e quindi innalzato ulteriormente, di una corona
installata in cima all’edifi cio: sulla grande torre dell’Empire State Buil-
ding, ad unaltezza di 320 metri, venne così costruita una seconda torre,
in modo che questo edifi cio, una volta ultimato, potesse superare il cam-
pione in carica, ovvero il Chrysler Building, di 62 metri. Nell’Empire State
Building si trovano principalmente uffi ci. I ca. 3 milioni di turisti che lo
visitano ogni anno, vengono premiati sulla piattaforma panoramica a
320 metri di altezza con una favolosa vista fi no a 80 km di distanza.

El edifi cio Empire State
En el conocido perfi l de Manhattan destaca sobre todo un rascacielos
que atrapa todas las miradas: el edifi cio Empire State. Acabado en el año
1931, la construcción de este famoso emblema neoyorquino duró úni-
camente 18 meses. En este tiempo récord se emplearon 60.000 tonela-
das de acero y 10 millones de ladrillos y se tendieron más de 5.600 km
de cable de teléfono y 96 km de tuberías de agua. Hasta el año 1972 el
edifi cio Empire State encabezaba con sus 381 m (con antena: 443 m) la
lista de los edifi cios más altos del mundo. No obstante, para hacerse con
este título, el arquitecto William Lamb tuvo que servirse de un truco cu-
ando en 1929 el edifi cio Chrysler se elevó aún más mediante una coro-
na: Se construyó una segunda torre más pequeña sobre la torre grande
de 320 m, de manera que el edifi cio Empire State, al terminar las obras,
sobrepasó en 62 m al que hasta entonces había ostentado el récord, el
edifi cio Chrysler.
El edifi cio Empire State se utiliza fundamentalmente como ofi cinas. Los
3 millones de turistas que suben cada año a la plataforma de observación
a una altura de 320 m se ven recompensados con una vista panorámica
de hasta 80 km.

krabber alle aandacht: het Empire State Building. In 1931 werd het ge-
bouw voltooid, de bouw van het bekende symbool van New York nam
slechts 18 maanden in beslag. In deze recordtijd werden 60.000 t staal

To t 1972 stond het Empire State Building met 381 m (met antenne: 443 m)
bovenaan de lijst met de hoogste gebouwen ter wereld. Voor deze titel
moest architect William Lamb destijds echter een truc toepassen. Toen
in 1929 het Chrysler Building, de recordhouder tot dan toe, onverwachts
een extra spits kreeg werd op de grote toren met een hoogte van 320 m
een tweede kleine toren geplaatst. Zo werd het Empire State Building
na het voltooien van de bouw 62 meter hoger dan het Chrysler Building.
Het Empire State Building wordt hoofdzakelijk gebruikt als kantoorge-
bouw. De 3 mln. toeristen die het gebouw jaarlijks bezoeken worden op
het uitkijkplatform op een hoogte van 320 m beloond met een uitzicht
tot 80 km.
