A picture of an illustration of the Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller Empire State Plaza in Albany, New York. The view is that of east to west. In the background are the state office towers designed by Wallace K. Harrison and Max Abramovitz. The tallest building in the group is the Corning Tower (also a state office building and designed by Harrison and Abramovitz), named after the Albany mayor Erastus Corning II. Some of the elements in the rendering were not realized in the actual construction project.
