The building is named after the Empress Hall which formerly stood on the site, and in tribute to the Empire State Building. It was built between 1958 and 1961 on the site of the former Empress Hall and ice rink as a commercial building and was 100 metres tall with 28 floors, designed by Stone, Toms & Partners and was briefly the tallest commercial building in London until Millbank Tower was built in 1962.
