In the game
The tower’s Art Deco styling is borrowed for the fictional WKZ-TV broadcast tower.
History in brief
Although it looks like a 1930s building, NBC Tower was finished in 1989. Its setbacks and spire deliberately echo Rockefeller Center in New York, home of NBC’s parent studios.
The place today
Still home to NBC’s Chicago studios and other offices.
