A collage with photos of a cityscape at sunset, three women taking a selfie in a skyscraper, and a woman in an art exhibit. A person in colorful clothing poses on a large sculpture of a gorilla's hand in a room with red-framed windows and polished flooring. Three people standing at a tall window overlooking a cityscape with a river and buildings under a blue sky. Two people smiling and interacting near a coin-operated viewer on a high-altitude observation deck with a sunset view. Two people seated next to a bronze statue of a worker, smiling for a photo in a museum-like setting. A person in a yellow dress stands smiling on a rooftop observatory, with a cityscape visible in the background. A dimly lit gallery with multiple movie posters displayed on walls, and blurred figures walking by. A skyscraper with labeled observatories on the 86th and 102nd floors, against a cloudy blue sky.

Visit the 86th Floor Observation Deck, the highest 360º open-air observation deck in NYC. From 1,054 ft (320 m) above Manhattan, take in unobstructed views of the skyline, from Central Park to the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, and beyond. Known as one of the most Instagrammed spots in the world, it is the perfect place for photos.

Then, continue to the reimagined 102nd Floor Observation Deck. Ride to the top in a glass elevator, where floor-to-ceiling windows, on a clear day, you can see up to 80 miles across six states.

Finally, visit the building’s Art Deco Fifth Avenue lobby of golden murals and elegant design that has welcomed millions of visitors from around the world.
