Ding, Dong The Witch Is Dead! GE Sign Finally Coming Down…
Most will be glad to know that work began a few days back to take down the GE sign at 30 Rock…soon NBC’s proud peacock will take it’s rightful place here. Thanks to Anthony Quintero for this shot of the work in progress. Enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee
I never liked the GE sign. They basically corporate-raided RCA, broke it up into pieces and then sold it. This is long overdue.
OH boy, we’re going to be seeing flyovers on TV for eternity!
Kabletown has arrived!!
Just the peacock I hope.
Considering the fact that Comcast is going to great lengths to restore the building to its former grandeur, it would be nice to see the RCA back on top of 30 Rock.
FYI my name is Quintano
Now they’ll have to fix the new SNL intro……I *was* surprised to see a shot of 30 Rock, still with the GE signage! Thought to myself, “didn’t they change that out yet?”
There will be a peacock along with the word, Comcast. http://www.multichannel.com/news/news-articles/comcast-logo-set-top-30-rock/375269
One question though…what about the sides of the building at street level? Are they going change it, or leave as it is as saying “GE Building”? Just asking…
Can I trade in my copy of “Cooking With Light Bulbs” now?
Now it could be worse…..they could have left the RCA logo up there 😀 Either way, it’s fitting to replace that GE logo with the peacock.
Although I work for another network, that peacock is a nice logo, and I enjoy looking at it on Chicago’s NBC Tower, which was built in 1989 and inspired by 30 Rock. https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4051/4492750221_7bf93c4567_z.jpg
It’s really the RCA building, but I suppose that ship sailed a long time ago. Was there ever an RCA sign atop 30 Rock?
Just the peacock, or will Comcast replace one beheamoth’s logo with another (their own)?
