What to expect

Edge Observation Deck – Skip-the-line & flexible entry

Edge combines cutting-edge architecture with unmatched skyline views, creating one of NYC’s most thrilling observation experiences. From its suspended outdoor platform to its dramatic glass angles and floor panels, Edge lets you see New York from striking new perspectives.

Features:

• Level 100 indoor sky deck: Start indoors with floor-to-ceiling windows offering sweeping views of the Hudson River, Midtown skyscrapers, and beyond, perfect for warm-up photos before heading outside.

• Outdoor sky deck with angled glass walls: Step onto the triangular platform that extends 80 feet into the open air. Lean against the angled glass walls for unobstructed views of the Empire State Building, the World Trade Center, and the skyline stretching north to Central Park.

• The Glass Floor: Walk over a transparent panel that lets you look straight down 100 stories to the streets below, one of Edge’s most iconic photo moments.

• Skyline Steps & Eastern Point: Climb the outdoor steps for a higher vantage point of the west side, or stand alone at the Eastern Point, where glass surrounds you on three sides for a jaw-dropping, floating-in-the-sky feeling.

• Flexible entry upgrades: For visitors wanting less waiting and more viewing, the Flex Pass allows anytime entry, while the Express Pass skips all lines, ideal during peak evenings and weekends.
