Empire State Building Tower and Mast

Empire State Building Tower and Mast. A dirigible mast, now the base of the TV tower, was part of the original construction of the Building. One attempt to moor a privately owned blimp was successful for three minutes. But during a second attempt, in September 1931, a Navy Blimp was almost upended and nearly swept away celebrities attending the historic affair, while the water ballast drenched pedestrians several blocks away. The mooring mast idea was ultimately abandoned. Empire State Building: Official Internet Site Image License: I, (sookietex) the creator of this work, hereby release it into the public domain.
