The LEGO Architecture 21046-1 Empire State Building set meticulously recreates the iconic New York City landmark. This 1767-piece model rises to an impressive 55 cm, capturing the building's 1950 height increase with its distinctive Art Deco antenna tower. The intricate replica showcases the symmetrical lines of the structure's four curtain wall facades. A tiled baseplate depicts a bustling Fifth Avenue scene, complete with miniature yellow cabs and surrounding roads. The model is designed for 360° display, allowing appreciation of its historical and architectural accuracy from every angle. A decorative nameplate elegantly completes this detailed representation of a structure whose construction began on March 17, 1930, in the heart of New York City.
