My favourite building (so far) but at 5 this morning I was wondering why it was so called.
Chrysler building, Flatiron building etc. quite obvious but why Empire State?
I don't remember the American Empire...
Please advise? ;D

The nickname of New York is the "Empire State." Empire as in business empire.
