Top-notch tour of the tower

Witness New York City's skyline from the highest viewpoint on this multi-sensory, adrenaline-pumping experience. How? As the elevator door closes, you'll see screens light up inside and they take you through the history and development of New York from the 1500s to now! Ascend to the 102nd floor and walk down two floors to see the city unfurl below you, revealing landmarks and stories at the Sky Portal. The portal is a 14-foot-wide circle of glass below which you can see 100 stories directly beneath your feet! Spot Staten Island, Lady Liberty, New Jersey, and bridges like the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge.
