30 Rockefeller Plaza

Urban Farm DB summary

A rooftop garden designed by Ralph Hancock and Raymond Hood opened on the 11th floor of 30 Rockefeller Plaza in April 1935. It originally featured themed gardens representing 13 nations (the 'Gardens of the Nations'), which were demolished by 1938; the garden subsequently died off and was replaced by a non-public flower bed, and no longer exists today.
