🇮🇹 IL GEMELLO DELL’EMPIRE STATE BUILDING
questo grattacielo in stile Art Deco, molto simile all’Empire State Building, è il 500 Fifth Avenue. Non si tratta di un caso. In effetti, è stato progettato dagli stessi architetti: Shreve, Lamb e Harmon. Inoltre, è stato inaugurato nello stesso anno: il 1931. Si trova all’angolo tra la Fifth Avenue e la 42nd st, che, all’epoca, era considerato l’incrocio più importante della città, dopo quello tra la Broadway e Wall Street. Il rilievo sopra l’ingresso prende il nome di “Genius of Modern Skyscrapers”
