Skyscrapers Building

Manhattan is one of the greatest skyscrapers building of the world. Manhattan, the commercial centre of New York, is one of the five boroughs that make up the entire city. Since the borough is an island, the only direction left for its expansion is upwards. Now this time Manhattan is a seat of the world’s largest skyscrapers. The 102-storey Empire State Building in Manhattan was the tallest building in the world from its completion in 1931 to 1970. Designed by the architectural firm of Shreve, Lamb and Harrison primarily as an office building, the Empire State Building was provided with rarely used docking facilities for dirigibles which are no longer used. In the 1950s a 70-ton television tower was added on the head. Much of people including kings and presidents have its observation desk on the 86^th floor and the top of the tower on the 102^nd floor which is 381 meters above the street. This building was surpassed in height by the by the world Trade center (419 meters), another Manhattan skyscraper, in 1971. It was too large building of Manhattan. Surpassing them both, the 110-storey Sears Tower (443 meters) was built in Chicago in 1973. The highly building of the world now is the Patronage Tower (451.9 meters) which was built in Malaysia in 1996.
