What to See with Tickets to SUMMIT One Vanderbilt
Your visit begins with the elevator that takes you to the 91st floor in just a few seconds: an overwhelming sensation in itself. Here, you’ll enter Kenzo Digital’s “AIR” installation, a multisensory mirrored work spread across multiple levels that transforms the perception of space into something impossible to describe in words. Reflections multiply endlessly, the Manhattan skyline blends with the light effects, and every angle offers a different photo opportunity.
The tour continues to the Levitation platform, two transparent glass ledges extending from the building more than 320 meters above the ground, directly over Madison Avenue. You’ll look down and see the streets below with cars moving like ants: a truly breath-stopping moment.
Next, you’ll reach the “AFFINITY” room, with its silver balloons and projections that make you feel immersed among the clouds. The tour then takes you to the outdoor observation terrace on the 93rd floor, an open-air viewpoint overlooking the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, Central Park, and on the clearest days, up to 80 miles of horizon.
The visit ends in the Après area, where you can relax with a drink in hand while looking out over New York from above, without rushing, already knowing this will be one of the images you’ll carry home forever.
