Going to the Top of the Rock Observation Deck at Rockefeller Center is a must see, especially for 1st timers to NYC! No other vantage point in the city offers the inspiring, unobstructed views you'll find high atop the iconic Rockefeller Center.

From three levels of observation decks – two indoor and one outdoor – take in the impressive views across Manhattan where on a clear day you can see for miles in every direction. Spot famous city landmarks such as the Chrysler Building, Times Square, the Hudson River, East River, the Brooklyn Bridge and the Statue of Liberty.

The fun begins on the ground floor with a spectacular Swarovski crystal chandelier and a multimedia presentation of the rich history, art and architecture of this historic building. Then board the glass elevator (“Sky Shuttle”) and be rushed straight up in less than a minute to the three viewing decks where you’ll be awestruck by the amazing views, particularly those from the outside observation platform on the 70th floor with its 360° views.

In addition to the views, Top of the Rock will provide visitors with an opportunity to appreciate the architecture of the Rockefeller Center and its importance to the growth of the city of New York. Whether by day or night, you shouldn’t miss this unique opportunity.
