“Following this formula, John Jacob Astor, who arrived in America the classic penniless immigrant in 1792, rose to become the “landlord of New York” and the richest man in America by the time he died in 1848.”
John Tauranac, The Empire State Building: The Making of a Landmark

“The General Motors Building, erected the year before on the trapezoidal block bounded by Broadway and Eighth Avenue between Fifty-seventh and Fifty-eighth Streets, however, was an important commission for them, one that won them a secure place in architectural history.”
John Tauranac, The Empire State Building: The Making of a Landmark

“The Fifth Avenue Association awarded the Empire State Building its gold medal for design, which was “architecturally excellent from top to bottom.”
