See New York City from 70 floors up at the Top of the Rock Observation Deck, perched over 800 feet above the Rockefeller Center. Enjoy panoramic views from three observation decks—both indoor and outdoor—and spot iconic landmarks like the Brooklyn Bridge, Statue of Liberty, Central Park, and more.
Begin your visit at ground level, where you’ll be greeted by a three-story chandelier made from 14,000 sparkling crystals. Take some time to explore the Mezzanine Exhibit to learn about the Rockefeller Center’s fascinating history through a collection of photos, information, and artifacts.
Then, zip up to the top on the legendary Sky Shuttle elevator, which will whisk you up 850 feet in less than 60 seconds. Once at the top, you’ll have access to three levels of observation decks, each offering stunning views of the city.
For the grand finale, step out onto the 70th Floor Open Air Roof Deck, where you’ll be rewarded with 360-degree, unobstructed views. With no metal or glass enclosures, it feels like you’re floating above the city. Snap photos with your loved ones and see if you can spot landmarks like the Empire State Building, Times Square, and the Chrysler Building.
