Question: are there offices in the empire state building

Answer: Yes, As of 2014 the building is owned by the Empire State Realty Trust with Anthony Malkin as Chairman, CEO, and President. Details on the trust's profits are scarce, but it is known that significantly more revenue was earned from tourism than from leasing the office space in 2011. In August 2016, the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) obtained a 10% share in the Empire State Building through a $622 million investment in the Empire State Realty Trust. The trust's president John Kessler called it an ``endorsement of the company's irreplaceable assets''. The investment has been described by the real-estate magazine The Real Deal as ``an unusual move for a sovereign wealth fund'', as these funds typically buy direct stakes in buildings rather than real estate companies. Other foreign entities that have a stake in the Empire State Building include investors from Norway, Japan, and Australia.
