The stairway takes you past the large model of world’s most famous building to the exciting New 2nd Floor Exhibits featuring new immersive and interactive exhibits that allow you to be transported back in time to see the site in the 1920s and see the construction crews as they work and take their lunch break high above the city below. You can walk into an office from the 1930s where King Kong’s fingers pierce the walls as he dangles from the building, perhaps even dare to sit in his hand.
