Book The Edge the smart way
Buying tickets online for New York’s observation decks lets you choose your preferred time slot, avoiding lines at the ticket office—which, during peak periods, can cost you up to an hour of your valuable time.
Tickets for The Edge are timed-entry, meaning your spot is only guaranteed if you book in advance, especially on weekends and during the summer months when demand increases significantly. Weekday mornings are generally the least crowded, while late afternoon just before sunset is the most in-demand time.
What to See with The Edge New York Tickets
Your visit will begin on Level 4 of The Shops at Hudson Yards, where an immersive multimedia experience called “Journey to Edge” will prepare you for what awaits at the top, telling the story of the skyscraper through images and sound. Two high-speed elevators will take you from the fourth to the 100th floor in under a minute—a ride so fast it will leave you breathless even before you step outside.
Once on the deck, the panorama will unfold in every direction with breathtaking clarity. The outdoor platform extends 24 meters beyond the building’s facade, with a slight 6.6-degree downward tilt that enhances the feeling of being suspended in the air. You can walk all the way to the Eastern Point, the farthest tip of the platform—the place where the city surrounds you completely: to the east, you’ll see the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building rising among the Midtown skyscrapers; to the south, the skyline will close with the silhouette of One World Trade Center and, on clear days, the outline of the Statue of Liberty; to the north, the greenery of Central Park will stand out sharply from the urban landscape like a long rectangle of calm in the middle of the concrete.
The glass floor allows you to look straight down at the streets of Hudson Yards, one hundred floors below. Just a few seconds standing on that transparent panel are enough to realize how New York can make you feel both small and grand at the same time.
Next, you can climb the Skyline Steps, an outdoor staircase that takes you even higher on the deck structure, to capture the most iconic photos with the skyline behind you and the entire city beneath you.
Inside on Level 100, you’ll find The Edge’s Champagne Bar, where stopping for a drink as the sun sets over the Hudson is one of the most memorable experiences New York can offer. 🌆✨🥂
