The Empire State Building was designed as a zeppelin docking station. Boarding/de-boarding and flight times are barely competitive with the modern subway. It was fun and novel, but quite impractical.
To be fair have many people still been trying to improve on the technology or are we still using some ancient blueprint.
Avation science has come a long way.
Zeppelins were used in 1910-1937. The helicopter was invented in 1939.
