Spain succeeded in conquering so much of the Americas because they used their religion as a main belief, the spread of European diseases weakened the Americas conquests, the Spanish soldiers and sailors had excellent fighting skills and used advanced weapons on the Native American armies, and lastly, Spain made alliances with the Native Americans, the enemies of the Incas and Aztecs.

It is a more efficient use of land space, particularly where space is limited or expensive, where a business cannot spread out, but it can always go up.
Lower cost of construction per square foot of floor space is another advantage. the upper floors are often mere repetition of lower floors. The building is cheaper to heat because of less roof through which heat can escape. It is also cheaper too cool where air conditioning is necessary. Upper stories are more free from street noises, odors and dirt.
There are several issues that New York City is facing. Below is a list:
1. Lack of Affordable Housing and Gentrification

Some of the famous architects of New York City are William Van Alen and Walter Chrysler who designed the Chysler Building, Daniel Burnham and Frederick P Dinkelburg who designed the FlatIron Building and William F Lamb who designed the Empire State Building. There is so much famous architecture that it is hard to know where to stop.

Way shorter than a mile! No building has ever approached that height. A mile is 5,280 feet. The Empire State Building is only 1250 feet. Currently the tallest building, the Taipai 101, is 1671 feet (and 101 floors).
south tower 1,362 feet high to the roof and north tower 1,347 feet high to the top floor.
Strength--Steel is very strong Flexibility--Ability to flex in the wind Cost--Inexpensive and fast to build; prefab construction Concrete, a possible alternative, has less compressive strength than steel. The bottom support structure of the empire state building would consist of a large percentage of solid concrete simply to support the weight of the building.
The building is 102 floors, 1,860 steps from street level to 102 floor, 6,500 windows, 57,000 tons of steel, 17 million feet of telephone wire, cost to build was 40, 948,900.00, and it took 1 year 45 days to build.
