The excitement doesn't stop when I enter the building. As you walk through the glittering hallway and take the escalators all the way to the observation floor, you will be overwhelmed by the view of New York City. The day we visited, the weather was perfect, not a cloud in the sky, so we were able to fully enjoy the clear view. It is a place you will want to visit again and again.

Visiting the Edge Observatory Deck was breathtaking! The floor-to-ceiling glass walls and glass floor gave a thrilling, unobstructed view of NYC from over 1,100 feet up. The outdoor sky deck felt like floating in the sky—absolutely surreal. Sunset was magical, with golden light reflecting off the skyline. Definitely a must-see!

So beautiful and so fun. Such a great view with a unique perspective of looking down under your feet. The building is also great before you even get to the Edge, fun shops and restauarants. Loved it. I highly recommend going if you like high buildings with amazing 360 views - if you are scared of heights - don't go -otherwise join in the fun.
