Founded in 1928 in Manhattan, Rockefeller Group traces its roots to Rockefeller Center, a singular and visionary project that continues to inspire our nearly century-long commitment to the development of extraordinary properties and the creation of exceptional experiences.
On December 6, 1928, John D. Rockefeller Jr. incorporates the Metropolitan Square Corporation (today Rockefeller Group).
Construction workers raise a Christmas tree, starting what would become a famous annual tradition in Rockefeller Center.
The last building in the original Rockefeller Center complex is completed, four years prior to its expansion across Avenue of the Americas. It receives universal acclaim as a masterpiece of uplifting urban design.
The former Time & Life Building is completed, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, the first of five additions to Rockefeller Center to the west side of Sixth Avenue between 1959 and 2001.
Rockefeller Group completes three more towers on the west side of Avenue of the Americas, nearly doubling the size of the original Center.
Rockefeller Group expands to New Jersey to begin development of the International Trade Center, a 7-million-square-foot business park and pioneering foreign trade zone.
Rockefeller Group Development Corp. is formed, expanding the company’s development business beyond New York City to projects in New Jersey, Detroit, Phoenix and Los Angeles.
Mitsubishi Estate Co. Ltd. (MEC) acquires a majority interest in Rockefeller Group, the start of a long-term partnership that has grown and endured for more than three decades.
CBRE arranged the $94.5 million sale of 25 Commerce Park, a fully leased, three-building Class A industrial campus totaling 453,550 square feet in Denver’s North I-25 Corridor. EastGroup Properties, Inc. was the buyer.
Industrial activity has improved in key U.S. markets, continuing gains from the last quarter of 2025 into the first quarter of 2026. New leasing activity, increased site tours, and more requests for proposals indicate a rebound in demand. This uptick follows several quarters of slowdown caused by uncertainty, supply‑chain shifts, and executive caution in a volatile trade environment.
