Empire State Building Observatory

Description

The Empire State Building is one of the world’s most famous buildings. Rising 1,454 feet above Midtown Manhattan from ground to the antenna, it is a symbol of hope and possibility and welcoming to all. Its 360-degree outdoor 86th floor Main Deck and the new 102nd floor Top Deck Observatories offer stunning views of New York City from the center of Manhattan. The reimagined experience includes an immersive museum that celebrates the Empire State Building from the time it was conceived to its place today in pop-culture. It's a must-visit near Times Square, Macy’s, and Madison Square Garden.
