Rockefeller Center prepping for 23-ton 'Sky Mirror'

Rockefeller Center is making way for the installation later this week of Anish Kapoor's 23-ton "Sky Mirror."

"Sky Mirror" should pull an inverted view of the skyline -- including 30 Rockefeller Plaza -- down to ground level. It will be on display from September 19 through October 27.

More pictures after the jump.
