EDITORS COMMENTS

Lamb from Shreve, Lamb and Harmon architectural firm, construction began on January 22nd, 1930. After countless hours of hard work and unwavering teamwork from these skilled men in their occupation as steelworkers and builders at great heights; finally came May 1st, 1931 - when the Empire State Building officially opened its doors to awe-struck visitors. This photograph not only represents a remarkable feat in engineering but also symbolizes human determination and ambition during a time when America was striving for greatness amidst economic challenges. It serves as a testament to progress and innovation that defined New York City throughout history.
