Unknown object Over The Empire State Building

While on a break at work, i witnessed a dark blue oval shaped object with blinking red and blue lights.there were four blinking red lights,two located on the bottom and two on the top.there was also a baby blue light at the end of the object.from where i was(looking out a window from a 16th floor stairwell),i had a good view new york city.this object moved slowly over the empire state building coming from the west,and stopped right above it.from what i calculated,it might have been maybe 100 feet above the empire state,but then again i could be wrong.after all i was viewing this from 168th street,and the empire state is located on 34th street.nonetheless,i was still able to see it clearly.after about 7 minutes,the object slowly moved back to west of the empire state building,stopping yet again for about another two minutes.suddenly it grew bright,then proceeded south towards staten island until i could no longer see it anymore.i recorded the object on my raz! or cellphone.it's blurry of course,but it's available if anybody is interested in seeing it.
