Where and why is the Royal Coat of Arms in the title sequence of 30Rock

Where and why is the Royal Coat of Arms in the title sequence of 30Rock - Crop smiling woman with closed eyes and badge stroking cute dog with brown coat

During the opening title sequence of 30Rock we see various images around Rockerfeller Plaza including NBC studios and the building itself, there is a shot which looks identical to the Royal Coat of Arms of the UK.

Where is this located, I don't remember seeing this when I visited the building a few years ago, also can some one tell me why it's there? Is there some British ancestry?

It's the replica of the Royal Coat of Arms as part of a panel called Industries of the British Empire sculpted by Carl Paul Jennewein at the British Empire Building in Rockefeller Center, 620 5th Avenue.
