Summit One Vanderbilt

Description

Set atop the tallest commercial skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan (1,401 feet), Summit One Vanderbilt, an observatory high above Grand Central Terminal, was conceived as an installation that compels you to question your perception of the built environment, the natural world around you, and your sensorial reality. Summit ups the ante on the NYC observatory experience through art installations, glass ledges, and exterior glass-floor elevators. Food and beverages, including cocktails, are available for purchase onsite at Après, located inside and on the outdoor terrace. Entry to Summit is through the main concourse of Grand Central Terminal.
