MKMapView center and zoom the view towards the annotations,

Question

 MKPointAnnotation *annotation = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
 MKPointAnnotation *annotation1 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
 MKPointAnnotation *annotation2 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
MKPointAnnotation *annotation3 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
 MKPointAnnotation *annotation4 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
 MKPointAnnotation *annotation5 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
 MKPointAnnotation *annotation6 = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
annotation.coordinate=CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(40.748736,-73.892523);
annotation.title=@"Head Office";

[mapView addAnnotation:annotation];
[mapView addAnnotation:annotation1];
[mapView addAnnotation:annotation2];
[mapView addAnnotation:annotation3];
[mapView addAnnotation:annotation4];
[mapView addAnnotation:annotation5];
[mapView addAnnotation:annotation6];
MKMapRect zoomRect = MKMapRectNull;
for (id <MKAnnotation> annotation in mapView.annotations) {
    NSLog(@"%@",annotation);
    MKMapPoint annotationPoint = MKMapPointForCoordinate(annotation.coordinate);
    MKMapRect pointRect = MKMapRectMake(annotationPoint.x, annotationPoint.y, 0, 0);
    if (MKMapRectIsNull(zoomRect)) {
        zoomRect = pointRect;
    } else {
        zoomRect = MKMapRectUnion(zoomRect, pointRect);
    }
}
[mapView setVisibleMapRect:zoomRect animated:YES];

I have these 6 static locations I have to show on the MK Map. After manually declaring all the annotation, I used the for loop code I found on stackoverflow to center and zoom my map to the annotations declared. But when I run my application, the map gives me a default zoom level view towards the Atlantic Ocean. Help please. I am running the app in simulator

MKMapRect zoomRect = MKMapRectNull;
for (id <MKAnnotation> annotation in mapView.annotations) {
    NSLog(@"%@",annotation);
    MKMapPoint annotationPoint = MKMapPointForCoordinate(annotation.coordinate);
    MKMapRect pointRect = MKMapRectMake(annotationPoint.x, annotationPoint.y, 0.1, 0.1);
    if (MKMapRectIsNull(zoomRect)) {
        zoomRect = pointRect;
    } else {
        zoomRect = MKMapRectUnion(zoomRect, pointRect);
    }
}
[mapView setVisibleMapRect:zoomRect animated:YES];
