Rockefeller Plaza West
New York
1987-1990

A two-tiered podium, stepped toward the west, defines the Seventh Avenue street wall. This surface is covered by electronic signage, with a tower of light indicating a building entrance. An irregular configuration is created at the Plaza to the east, resolving the complex ground level site conditions and providing the main entrance to the building.
