New York - The current elections in the United States are affecting not only people but also famous buildings. The famous skyscraper Empire State Building in New York is politically divided as well, writes the AP agency today.
Its top now shines in blue and red, the colors of the Democrats and Republicans. When the world learns whether the next American president will be Democratic candidate Barack Obama or Republican candidate John McCain, the 381-meter tall building will be illuminated in the color of the winning party.
The lighting of the Empire State Building often reflects significant events taking place in the United States. For the first time in 1932, its lighting informed the people of New York that the new president was Democrat Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
