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.

We had planned to go, but I didn't purchase tickets ahead of time because I wasn't sure if we'd change our minds. So I bought the tickets through headout while we were outside the venue. Everything was seamless, and the museum itself was amazing. We had to leave before we could see all of it. So we will definitely be back. Thank you!

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!
