Taken from Wikipedia, "The British Empire Building, also known by its address 620 Fifth Avenue, is a 6-story retail building located on the west side of Fifth Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Completed in 1934, the structure is part of Rockefeller Center, and was built in the Art Deco style."
"Because Rockefeller Center, Inc., does not control the Fifth Avenue end of the Forty-eight to Forty-ninth Street block, the Center presents only a two-block frontage on the east which consists of La Maison Francaise and the British Empire Building, between Forty-ninth and Fiftieth Streets, and the twin six-story extension of the International Building.} - New York City, 1939
