GE Building

Description

El GE Building és un dels gratacels més cèlebres de New York. És l'edifici principal i nucli del Rockefeller Center. Construït en estil art déco, fa 259 metres d'alçària i té 70 pisos. És el vuitè immoble més alt de New York. El GE Building ha estat acabat el 1933 i portava aleshores el nom de RCA Building, abans de ser el GE Building al final dels anys 1980. També se l'anomena 30 Rockefeller Plaza.

L'edifici, començat el 1931, va ser acabat el 1933 mentre que la resta del Rockefeller Center estava sempre en construcció. S'anomenava en aquell temps el RCA Building, del nom del seu principal arrendatari, la Radio Corporation of America, formada el 1919 per la General Electric. Per primera vegada en la història de l'arquitectura, l'immoble disposava d'ascensors reagrupats al seu centre. La National Broadcasting Company, que pertanyia igualment a la General Electric, va llogar diversos espais de l'edifici. El despatx de la família Rockefeller era per la seva part situat al pis 56è. Avui, la Rockefeller Family & Associates ocupa tres pisos del gratacel, entre els pisos 54è i 56è.
