Empire State Building Replica - Iconic New York City Skyline Model - Perfect for Home Decor, Office Display & NYC Souvenirs

The Empire State Building glows at night in Manhattan, Jan. 27, 2016. At 1,250 feet, the Empire State Building remains a beacon in the city's skyline. But that skyline is constantly changing.

In a 2016 article, The New York Times said, "Its transformation has been nothing less than astonishing over the past decade. Even when it seems as if there were nowhere left to go, the city, with its manifold appetites, could not be contained." Today, the Empire State andÊChrysler Building remain icons of the skyline, but they are being joined by many skyscrapers thatÊmay someday be worthy of appearing in a Times Square souvenir snow globe.
