Funny you say that. Last October, my dad and I were getting dinner at the Heartland Brewery on 5th Avenue in Manhattan. We didn't realize that we were inside the Empire State Building until we walked outside and my dad asked me where the Empire State Building was. We still didn't notice it until we crossed the street and looked up.
