NBC Radio City opened its doors in 1938, as the west coast headquarters for the National Broadcasting Company — long before it became a television network. The Streamline Moderne building, located in Hollywood at the corner of Sunset and Vine, was blue-green in color and trimmed with aluminum strips. To accommodate live radio programs like the Jack Benny Show, four large theatre-studios were constructed, each holding an audience of 300 people. Unfortunately the entire complex was demolished in the 1960s. (Maynard L. Parker, photographer. Courtesy of The Huntington Library, San Marino, California.)
