An incredible experience in New York. It offers spectacular views of the entire city, especially at sunset. The mirrored surfaces make everything look even more impressive and unlike any other observation deck.
I loved how they combine art and technology; it’s definitely not just about going up to see the view—it’s a fully interactive experience. I recommend allowing enough time to enjoy each room and take plenty of photos.
It can get quite crowded, so it’s best to book in advance. But it’s absolutely worth it—one of the best attractions in New York.

Great view in all directions. We did the Beam experience too. However you have to pay extra to get the pictures afterwards for download.

The ferry ride and self guided tours of the SOL and Ellis Island were fun. Disappointed that the ticket did not include the pedestal. I thought when I read before booking included the pedestal. The Edge was great yet windy and cold.
