Located atop the historic Radio City Music Hall in NYC’s mid-town district, this park has transformed a previously inaccessible barren rooftop into a renowned garden gem within the framework of Rockefeller Center. A series of interconnected outdoor rooms are framed by a native Birch tree forest to the north and a meandering path through white flowering Cherry trees to the south. A series of terraces extend from the central great lawn to a belvedere terrace hosting a plethora of functions from outdoor lunch, meetings, and social gatherings to serving as a stage for evening and weekend performances.
