With new skyscrapers popping up all over, there has never been a better time to explore our city’s wonderful collection of sky-high observation decks. What should be on your punch list?
NEWEST: Check out the Big Apple’s most recent addition, Summit One Vanderbilt, which features glass floors, immersive exhibits, and multiple cocktail bars.
The Empire State Building, of course, but we also recommend One World Observatory (the tallest building in NYC), Edge (the highest outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere), and Top of the Rock for Midtown’s most spectacular views. Diehard view seekers might want to pick up a New York CityPASS C3, which offers access to all but One World Observatory on a single ticket.

Whisper in Grand Central Terminal -
A fascinating acoustical phenomenon that lies within bustling Grand Central Terminal, the Whispering Gallery is located in a passageway on the lower level near the entrance to Grand Central Oyster Bar. When two individuals stand in opposite corners of the vaulted archway and whisper among themselves, they can easily hear each other clearly as if they were standing right next to one another. By the way, as you might expect, the Whispering Gallery is a popular locale for marriage proposals.
