Rockefeller Center is a fascinating combination of linked indoor and outdoor spaces. Because its design is logical and orderly yet endlessly intriguing, the Center allows for both satisfying glimpses and extended tours. Explore the historic GE Building and the awe-inspiring Radio City Music Hall. Stroll down the corporate corridor along Sixth Avenue. Enjoy the symmetry and serenity of the Promenade and Gardens or get a jolt of urban bustle on Fifth Avenue. Use the underground concourse to travel from building to building or just to shop, browse and dine.
Rockefeller Center was envisioned by John D. Rockefeller to be the grandest plaza in all New York- a place where business was transacted and communities congregated. Conceived on the verge of the Great Depression, Rockefeller financed the Center personally. Upon its completion, it was the largest private building project in modern history and a collection of buildings unrivaled in their artistry and Art Deco nobility.
Today, Rockefeller Center is one of the world’s great crossroads, filled with boutiques, fine dining, and home to the most famous ice rink and Christmas tree on earth. Architecturally profound, culturally diverse, and commercially vital, Rockefeller Center is the true plaza of the people.
