Full description
Your visit to Edge begins inside Hudson Yards, where you enter a multimedia experience designed to introduce the architecture, engineering, and forward-thinking design behind the neighborhood.
Travel quickly to more than 1,100 feet above Manhattan in the elevator, where the view opens in every direction the moment you step outside.
The platform extends out from the building, making you feel like you are floating above the west side of the city.
Frameless glass panels tilt outward to give you the sensation of leaning gently over the skyline, with iconic landmarks unfolding in every direction.
Stand on the glass floor to look straight down at the streets far below, where cars and people appear tiny from this incredible height.
Visit The Eastern Point, a narrow glass viewpoint designed for one person at a time, creating a dramatic photo opportunity.
Head up to the upper level to explore the Skyline Steps, a raised viewing area where you can relax, take photos, and enjoy a higher vantage point.
Enjoy the indoor viewing area on Level 100 where you can warm up, unwind, and enjoy a drink while taking in the views through tall windows.
From July 8 to August 28, experience Vinyl and Views, a music series set high above the city with chilled seasonal cocktails and delicious bites inspired by New York City.
Before you leave, take a walk around Hudson Yards, stop by the striking Vessel structure, browse The Shops, or enjoy a meal at one of the many restaurants within the complex.
