THE SIMPLE TOOTH 3 Historical Events That Happened in May
THE EMPIRE STATE BUILDING OPENED On May 1, 1931, the Empire State Building in New York opened its doors to the public. It’s one of the most distinctive and famous buildings in the United States, and millions of people travel to New York each year to see it. In the 1920s and 1930s, there was fierce competition to win the title of the tallest building in the world. The Empire State Building won the title with a height of 1,250 feet. Despite its popularity, it was heavily affected by the Great Depression when it first opened. The majority of the offices remained unrented, which coined the nickname “The Empty State Building.” It took 20 years for the building to become profitable.

Then, 15 hours later, she landed in Londonderry, Northern Ireland. Did you know any of these historical facts? Share your important May facts with us next time you’re in the office!

BLUE JEANS WERE INVENTED Do you know the jean brand Levi’s? This brand is named after Levi Strauss, who was one of the creators of blue jeans. On May 20, 1873, Strauss and Jacob Davis received a U.S. Patent on the process of putting rivets on men’s work pants. Strauss sold blue denim work pants to local workers, and one of his customers was Davis, who was a tailor. They quickly became friends and created a wholesale business called Strauss & Co. They created their idea because many customers complained about their pants tearing. This was when Davis had the idea of using rivets to reinforce the pockets and seams of the pants.
