Park Avenue, Manhattan

Dankuna — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 21:46:42 +0000

Park Avenue (formerly Fourth Avenue) is a panoramic boulevard that carries northerly and southbound traffic in New York City borough of Manhattan. Throughout most of its length, it runs parallel to Madison Avenue to the west and Lexington Avenue to the east.

Park Avenue

The flowers and greenery in the median of Park Avenue are serviceable by the Fund for Park Avenue. Begonias are a flower of choice for the Funds gardeners because there is no automatic watering system and they can cope with blistering sun.
Each December, Christmas trees are placed in the median. The first instance they were erected colored lights were used and accidents occurred because of confusion with traffic signals in front of them. Today exclusive chromatic and white lights are used.

Rockefeller Center is a complex of 19 commercial buildings covering 22 acres between 48th and 51st Streets in New York City. Built by the Rockefeller family, it is located in the center of Midtown Manhattan, spanning between Fifth Avenue and Seventh Avenue. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1987. It is the largest privately held complex of its kind in the world, and an international symbol of modernist architectural style blended with capitalism.

Rockefeller Center, New York City

Rockefeller Center was named after John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who rented the space from Columbia University in 1928 and it developed from 1930. Rockefeller initially planned a syndicate to build an opera for the Metropolitan Opera on the site, but changed his mind after the 1929 stock market crash and the Metropolitan continued delays to hold a lease for more favorable than the causes of Rockefeller for moving forward without them. Rockefeller said: “It was clear that there were only two courses open to me one summer to abandon the development of any other to move forward in the detailed knowledge that I myself to build it and finance it alone … “He took on the enormous project as the exclusive financial, on a 27-year lease (with option for three 21-year renewals for a total of 87 years) the site of Columbia, to negotiate a line of credit with the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and cover the operating costs through the sale of shares in the oil company.

United Nations Headquarters, New York City

Tom — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 14:26:53 +0000

The United Nations Headquarters is a distinctive complex in New York City that has served as the headquarters of the United Nations since its completion in 1950. It is located in the Turtle Bay neighborhood, on the east side of Midtown Manhattan, on spacious grounds overlooking the East River.

Though it is in New York City, the land occupied by the United Nations Headquarters is considered “international territory”, and its borders are First Avenue west, East 42nd Street south, East 48th Street north and the East River east. FDR Drive passes underneath the Conference Building of the complex. The United Nations Headquarters were constructed in New York City in 1949 and 1950 beside the East River, on seventeen acres of land purchased from the foremost New York real estate developer of the time, William Zeckendorf. This purchase was arranged by Nelson Rockefeller, after an initial offer of placing it on the Rockefeller family estate of Kykuit was rejected as being too isolated from Manhattan. The $8.5million purchase was then funded by his father, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who donated it to the City. The lead architect for the building was the real estate firm of Wallace Harrison, the personal architectural adviser for the family. Visit New York, best travel experience ever.
