The Edge (EOD) is fantastic! unlike other sky scrappers in New York, The Edge offers an open air access to the scenic citysacape. So, you not only just SEE the city, but FEEL it too! Its unique position assures maximum city skyline and view of the nearby river too. Almost all important landmarks of NEw York are visible from EOD, marking all the boxes...checked!. It was a fan moment for me when I saw the 'New Yorker' building from the EOD, making it easy for me to go their. I had done some research before chosing EOD. Other similar attractions in the city are behind the glasses and indoor in nature. Whereas, EOD's open air ambience gallery makes it stand out. Will come again!

The Edge Observation Deck was absolutely breathtaking! The view of the New York skyline was incredible, especially on a clear, sunny day. The glass floor and open-air deck gave such a thrilling perspective of the city below. The staff was friendly, and everything was well organized from entry to exit. Perfect spot for photos and soaking in the beauty of NYC from above. Highly recommend visiting right before sunset for the best light and views!

The early morning timeslot worked out well since the crowd was light. We took so many pictures and of other people too. We got great photo ideas from others too! This was our fist time visiting and will definitely go back, next time we will go during the afternoon for the sunset and make sure to walk the Vessel.

    Absolutely amazing experience! The views from The Edge are breathtaking — you can see the city from every angle. There were no lines at all, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The staff were incredibly friendly, polite, and helpful. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip — highly recommended!

    I arrived earlier than scheduled, and the hostess exchanged the ticket with the new schedule free of charge. Once you get to the 100th floor, life is incredible. The day I came, there weren't many of us, so it was very pleasant. Cover up because it can be windy

    This is our second time visiting the Edge, it was on my sons must do list for our vacation. One of the best observation decks and he loved being able to look down on the glass floor. The building is easy to get to get to and the area is beautiful.

    Ease of verifying tickets and entering both attractions. The staff were also helpful in every way. I visited on a windy day which somewhat hindered the experience but we had a good time overall. The holiday lights added a nice touch.
  • Treat yourself to the thrill of standing over 1,100 feet in the air and soaking in magnificent views of Manhattan from Edge New York, a feat of architecture and engineering suspended above The Shops at Hudson Yards.

    Up Above the World

    Reach the dizzying heights at Edge NYC, and then take it one step further 80 feet out into the open air on the outdoor sky deck. Experience an exhilarating sense of freedom as you lean against glass walls that independently cantilever outwards over a bustling skyline below. Take a daring step now and stand on the glass floor, peering down 100 stories at the streets below.

    Edge's Eastern Point provides a unique experience of being surrounded by nothing but air, sky, and glass – it's an image you'll never forget! On the upper level, take in the skyline steps and gaze through the glass panels beyond the deck's edge.
