"Unlike other NYC Observation Decks"
September 2023
The plexiglass around the Edge makes it unlike any other observation deck in NYC. A clear, and adrenaline-pumping view of the entire city makes for an amazing photo opportunity!

"EDGE NYC"
September 2023
You truly experience feeling like you are on the EDGE of the NYC skyline when you walk out onto this platform. Don't be afraid to scoot onto the plexiglass floor and look down (or don't, lol) the 110 floors to the street below. It makes for a great photo! If you are afraid of heights like me, you'll be grateful to know that the deck is stable and doesn't feel like it's moving, and there are a couple of bar stands to grab a glass of liquid courage to get you through (plus you get to keep the glass) don't miss this experience!

Tip: The wind can really blow while you're up that high so bring a jacket to stay warm.
