The plaque says, "Rockefeller Center is one of the foremost architectural projects undertaken in America in terms of scope, urban planning and integration of architecture, art and Landscaping. It was developed by John D. Rockefeller, J.R. The center's original architects wereL Reinhard & Hofmeister; Hood, Godley & Foulhoux; and Corbett, Hattison & MacMurray. The original complex of 14 buildings was constructed between 1931 and 1939, and provided jobs for thousands of laborers in the building industries throughout the depression."

Visit Instructions:
Because of the vastness of many of the "non-localized" sites (Gobi Desert, Great Wall of China), waymark owners are encouraged to allow visits that reflect different perspectives and experiences.
Localized waymark sites (Structures, Landmarks, Businesses) should reflect standard waymarking visit criteria (Logs & photos).
