This 17-minute documentary video explores the unlikely creation story of Rockefeller Center, one of New York City's most famous landmarks. Discover how a failed Metropolitan Opera project, combined with the devastating stock market crash, left John D. Rockefeller Jr. holding a massive lease with no plan. Learn how, instead of abandoning the project, Rockefeller transformed this potential disaster into an ambitious urban development during the Great Depression, creating a revolutionary complex of office towers, broadcast studios, and underground infrastructure that would forever change Midtown Manhattan and establish a new model for urban American development.
