About Empire State Building

The Empire State Building opened in 1931 after just over a year of construction. Its 443 m includes the spire; the 102nd-floor roof is about 380 m up. It stayed the world's tallest building until 1970.

The upper floors are lit in changing colours at night, and the building has appeared in countless films. It is a handy yardstick: the Burj Khalifa is nearly twice its height.

You reach this landmark at 84 points. It is landmark 4 of the 21 between the ground and the Moon, which waits at 930 points. Its real height is about 1.3 times that of the previous landmark, Eiffel Tower.

Answers are worth 0 to 100 points depending on how rare they are, so even a run of nothing but the rarest answers needs at least 1 hold to get here. A fall drops you to just below the last landmark you passed, so a landmark you have reached can slip away again. See how to play for the full rules.
