Empire State Building

A wonderful place to visit if you are in the city,New York's Empire State Building, a U.S. National Historic Landmark, soars more than a quarter of a mile into the atmosphere above the heart of Manhattan. It has both a glass-enclosed area and roomy outside promenades on all four sides.

I love it! The last time I went at night and it was too foggy to see anything. So they closed it. I was really disappointed.

I love it. Do you know if it's possible to take the stairs to go up there? Would be a fun thing to try. Once.

There is! AND there's an annual race from the bottom to the 86th floor where the observation deck is.

Sounds great, I guess I have to start practice my stair climbing skills straight away then!

It's absolutely possible to climb the stairs -- although I seem to recall you can't get quite all the way to the top, like that. Perhaps that's changed since I left the city; it might have been maintenance related. I just remember that you couldn't get onto the stairs from the top floor, back in the 1980s.
