  Rockfeller Center
  In 1938, after seven years of construction, Rockefeller Center pushed New York's financial
  district north to 50th St. in midtown Manhattan. A true masterpiece of functional architecture located around 5th Avenue, the Center integrates huge tow­ers with lush gardens, a pedestrian promenade, con­cert hall, cinema, underground shops and restau­rants, and direct access to the subway. In a sea of concrete office buildings, Rockefeller Center stands alone as a people-friendly place for both workers and tourists.
