By installing my sculpture Vertical Highways V03 in front of Rockefeller Center, I want to initiate a dialogue of art and architecture that resonates with the urban history of New York City.

I will never forget watching the Winter Olympics with my Mom and my Nanny on the black-and-white TV we had on the kitchen table in our Windsor Terrace home. It wasn't big, but it was thrilling. I'll always remember them screaming and cheering as the U.S. took home the gold. Though things have changed a lot since then, the Olympics are always memorable.

Hark, Christmas has descended on New York City. For several weeks this fall, the trees of the iconic Zuccotti Park, blocks from Wall Street (and the frequent site of anti-capitalist protests), have created a captivating golden canopy, accentuated by the lights that wrap around them. Now, as of Saturday morning, workers unpacking Christmas trees in the park heralded the arrival of a new season: winter.

New York loves a spectacle-especially one that glows, hums and vibrates with enough sensory power to make Times Square look understated. Enter reSOUND New York, the latest immersive art experience to land at Rockefeller Center, transforming the iconic rink level into a labyrinth of light, sound and touch. Created by d'strict, the Korean art and design collective responsible for viral digital works like WAVE and Waterfall-NYC, the exhibition marks their official New York debut and will run through October 31, 2026.

To celebrate the 25th season of Law & Order and the 27th premiere of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, NBC is hosting a limited-time dining experience based on the Dick Wolf franchise. The pop-up will run from Oct. 3-5. The event will take place at 1 Rockefeller Plaza, a fitting backdrop in Midtown Manhattan for the one-of-a-kind criminal experience.

Through Tuesday, September 16, Rockefeller Center is transforming into the only public destination, physical or digital, to stream the American collections live. Thanks to the Council of Fashion Designers of America and presenting partner Genesys, NYFW Live at Rockefeller Center is back for its second season, serving up front-row thrills without the front-row stress. Expect a parade of big-name designers lighting up the jumbo screens, from Michael Kors and Ralph Lauren to Coach, Tory Burch, Jason Wu and Anna Sui.

New York City is celebrating the launch of Peacock's new series The Paper with two pop-ups in Midtown. On Sept. 9, the plaza at Rockefeller Center and Flatiron Plaza will transform into two immersive, newsstand-themed pop-ups inspired by The Toledo Truth Teller, the fictional Midwestern paper featured in The Paper. Guests at the pop-up are invited to visit the Toledo Truth Teller pop-up newsstands, enjoy complimentary bagels from PopUp bagels (while supplies last).
