Rockefeller Center
Rockefeller center is one of the foremost architectural projects undertaken in America in terms of scope, urban planning and integration of architecture, art and Landscaping. It was developed by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. The center's original architects were: Reinhard & Hofmeister; Hood, Godley & Foulhoux; and Corbett, Harrison & MacMurray. The original complex of fourteen buildings was constructed between 1931 and 1939, and provided jobs for thousands of laborers in the building industries throughout the depression.
