Built between 1929 and 1940 by the esteemed philanthropist and businessman, John D. Rockefeller Jr., this architectural marvel stands as a testament to his vision and commitment to creating a landmark that would define the city's skyline.

This photograph, taken circa 1940, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing The Rockefeller Centre in its early glory. The Centre's enduring appeal and influence continue to make it a must-visit destination for tourists and locals alike, making it a cherished part of New York City's rich history.
