Nice experience

It was a nice one-time experience. I wouldn’t go again but it is something that you should do at least once if you are in NYC.

Long queues, but worth it.

Be prepared to queue for 30-40 minutes. It was worth it though: we had a spectacular view over Manhattan and the staff was very friendly.

Spectacular views, immersive experience

Wow this building has incredible views of NYC all around which is great for taking photos and finding sites. The mirrored ceilings and floors create fascinating illusions of a grander space also fun for great pics. The experience included a balloon room (favorite for the kids), your face in the clouds and special viewing areas in unique spaces. Having been to many of the tall buildings in NYC, this is now my favorite. Hope to take more family to see the stunning Summit!
