The main task was to meet the specified
amount, so the appearance of the
building was given the least attention.
The spire of the skyscraper, made in Art
Deco style, was originally designed as a
berthing mast and parking place for
airships. The one hundred and second
floor was first a landing platform, on it
there was a special ladder.

However, after several
attempts to lead to
skyscrapers, the airship
proved that it is difficult
and dangerous because of
the strong rising air flows
arising from the ogrome
heights of the building.
In 1952 0, a skyscraper
was attached to a large
television tower

It is built on a two-story
concrete foundation, and
the steel frame weighs
54,400 tons (the total
weight of the building is
331,000 tons).
