The royal arms on the British Empire Building

In low relief on a limestone wall beside steel-framed windows, the royal arms of the United Kingdom: a crowned lion and a chained unicorn hold a quartered shield encircled by the Garter, a crown and crest rise above, and a ribbon below carries the motto Dieu et mon droit. The arms mark the building as a showcase of Empire trade in New York.
