Tour Guide for a Day!

(c) Gellaine Burgos

Whoop! It's my first time to be a tour guide and I must say their job is kind of tiring since you'll have to talk and talk or in short entertain them. My speech was *ehem* "So this is the Empire State Building and it is a 102-story building located in Midtown Manhattan, New York City at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and West 34th street. It stands a total of 1, 454 feet (443.2) m high including its antenna spire. The Empire State Building stood as the World's tallest building from it's completion in 1931 until the construction of World Trade Center's North Tower in 1972. That was quite a long speech wasn't it? Imagine I had to keep on repeating those facts to every tourist that would stop by my post. It was definitely tiring but worth it at the same time. That is why I would like to thank Wikipedia for providing me the facts about the Empire State Buliding!
