Welcome

Defining Midtown Manhattan, Rockefeller Center’s 12 historically significant Art Deco buildings encompass six square city blocks and comprise over 9 million sq. ft. (840,000 sq. m.). The complex is divided into 8 million sq. ft. of office space and 1 million sq. ft. of retail and public space.

Built in the midst of the Great Depression, Rockefeller Center was founded on the vision of the Rockefeller family. Today it is home to Radio City Music Hall, Christie’s Auction House, NBC Studios, over 115 retail stores and dining venues, the world-famous Rockefeller Ice Rink, Christmas Tree, Top of the Rock Observation Deck and over 40,000 tenant employees.
