Top of the Rock and The Edge represent two completely different visions of what a New York observation deck can be.
Top of the Rock has been at the heart of Midtown since 1933. An Art Deco landmark at Rockefeller Center with open-air terraces, the most iconic Empire State Building view in the city, and a sense of history that newer decks simply don’t have. The Edge opened in 2020 at Hudson Yards. It went in the exact opposite direction. The highest outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere, a triangular glass platform jutting 80 feet from the building, with a glass floor and angled walls designed for people who want to feel genuinely exposed at 1,131 feet.
We visited both in December 2024 during a ten day family trip with our three year old and my aunt, whose partner is a born and bred New Yorker and retired FDNY firefighter. Top of the Rock was the one that felt most like New York. The Empire State Building framed perfectly from the open air 70th floor, the Rockefeller Christmas tree below, the golden hour light over Midtown. The Edge was the one that made our hearts race. Our daughter ran across the glass floor with no fear while I barely put my big toe over it.
Both are worth visiting. This guide breaks down the honest differences to help you decide which one fits your trip.

Location
Two incredible views, two very different neighbourhoods. Here’s where you’ll find each deck.
Top of the Rock
📍 Top of the Rock is at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, right in the heart of Midtown. The location is hard to beat. Fifth Avenue shopping, Radio City Music Hall and St Patrick’s Cathedral are all within a few minutes’ walk. In December, the Rockefeller Christmas tree is directly below you, which makes Top of the Rock the essential December observation deck visit. It’s the only deck with a direct view down onto the tree from above. For a full Christmas itinerary showing how we fitted both decks into one trip, see our 4 days in New York at Christmas guide.
The Edge
📍 The Edge is at 30 Hudson Yards on Manhattan’s far West Side. A completely different part of the city from Top of the Rock. Hudson Yards itself is worth exploring as a destination: the Vessel sculpture, The High Line elevated park and Chelsea Market are all within easy walking distance. The area has a very different feel to Midtown – modern, open and considerably less crowded.
How to get there:
TOP OF THE ROCK
Subway lines B, D, F and M to 47-50th Streets Rockefeller Center. Two minute walk.
THE EDGE
Subway line 7 to 34th Street Hudson Yards. Five minute walk. The High Line entrance is a short walk away if you want to combine both.
Views and landmarks
Both observation decks offer unforgettable views, but each gives you a completely different perspective of New York.
Top of the Rock
Best for classic New York skyline views
Empire State Building perfectly framed – the most iconic skyline shot in New York. Top of the Rock sits directly north of the Empire State Building, which is why the framing is so symmetrical and clean
Central Park stretching north – worth noting that the newer Billionaires’ Row skyscrapers have partially obscured this view in recent years, though it remains impressive
Downtown skyline and One World Trade Center
Hudson River and New Jersey in the distance
The Rockefeller Christmas tree directly below in December – the only deck in New York that gives you this view
The fully open-air 70th floor means no glass between you and the city – a genuine photography advantage over Summit One
The Edge
Best for a wide skyline and sunset views
Hudson River and New Jersey waterfront
Downtown skyline and One World Trade Center
Statue of Liberty in the distance
Vessel sculpture directly below
The west-facing position gives you views no other Midtown deck can offer, particularly spectacular at sunset when the Hudson River glows gold.
The triangular platform jutting 80 feet from the building gives you genuinely unobstructed views in three directions simultaneously
The key difference between Top of the Rock and The Edge
Top of the Rock gives you the classic postcard Midtown view. The Empire State Building is perfectly framed, Central Park stretching north. The Edge gives you something completely different. The Hudson River, the harbour, and a west-facing perspective that feels like a different city entirely. If you want the iconic New York shot, Top of the Rock. If you want the Hudson River at sunset, The Edge.
Other features
Top of the Rock
Swarovski Joie Chandelier – 14,000 crystals in 450 cascading strands rising three stories through the Grand Atrium lobby. Free to see on your way in and genuinely spectacular.
Welcome Gallery – a newly reimagined entry experience with murals, projection-mapped models, interactive exhibits and a theatre show about Rockefeller Centre’s history. Included in all tickets.
Three observation levels – 67th floor indoor with frameless glass, 69th floor outdoor with frameless safety glass, 70th floor fully open air with no glass at all.
The Beam – a replica steel beam on the 69th floor that lifts you 12 feet into the air and rotates 180 degrees, recreating the famous 1932 Lunch Atop a Skyscraper photograph. Included in Beam Combo ticket from $73. Children must be at least 42 inches tall with an adult or 52 inches to ride alone. No phones, cameras or bags permitted on The Beam.
Skylift – a rotating open air glass platform that rises 30 feet above the 70th floor for 360 degree unobstructed views. $35 add-on, available separately or as part of the VIP Pass.
The Weather Room Café and Bar – on the 67th floor, open daily until midnight. Named after the Doppler radar that sat on the 70th floor from 1960 to 1995. Artisanal sandwiches, cocktails, pastries and New York bagels. Terrace seating with Central Park views
RockMoMA combo – bundles Top of the Rock with MoMA general admission from $63, saving 14% versus buying separately. Worth considering if you’re planning to visit MoMA on the same trip.
The Edge
Outdoor sky deck – the triangular platform juts 80 feet beyond the building facade at 1,131 feet. No glass between you and the open air.
Glass floor – look straight down 100 floors to the streets below.
Angled glass walls – lean outward over the city for dramatic photos.
Skyline Seats – suspended seats facing outward over the city.
Eastern Point – the furthest point of the deck, extending furthest from the building.
Champagne Bar – drinks on the deck, available to all visitors.
Seven immersive installations – Prism, Pulse, Skyrise, Reflections, Kaleidoscope, Crystal Cave, and Infinite City guide you from the Level 4 entrance up to the deck. Included with standard admission, not an add-on. Expect colour-changing light rooms, a 200-mirror kaleidoscope, and a cinematic 100-floor elevator ride before you even reach the view.
City Climb – an optional upgrade where you climb the exterior crown of the building to approximately 1,271 feet via a guided, harnessed ascent. The highest open-air point available to visitors anywhere in the Western Hemisphere. Costs around $185-205, takes 90-120 minutes. Booked separately.
Practical tips before you visit
A few practical things to know that can make or break your experience.
Top of the Rock
Not a one way system – unlike Summit One you can move freely between all three floors and revisit levels as many times as you like. No time limit on your visit.
The Beam restrictions – no phones, cameras, bags or loose items permitted on The Beam. All belongings go in cubbies next to it. Maximum weight 300lbs.
Book The Beam in advance – walk-up upgrades are frequently unavailable, especially at sunset. Book the Beam Combo ticket online rather than hoping to add it on arrival.
Skylift is weather dependent – the platform can close in high winds or adverse conditions.
Free Wi-Fi throughout the observation deck.
Strollers permitted – must be collapsible. Wheelchair accessible throughout except The Beam.
The Edge
No time limit – unlike Summit One, you can stay as long as you like once you’re up there.
Free concessions – Edge ticket holders receive a free chocolate bar and brownie at Hudson Yards. Worth collecting on your way out.
Fear of heights – The Edge is not recommended for anyone with a serious fear of heights. The outdoor deck, glass floor, and angled walls are genuinely exposed. Summit One is considerably more manageable for nervous visitors.
Weather – the outdoor deck may close in extreme weather. The Sky Assurance weather guarantee gives you either 20% off at the bar on the day or a free rebook.
Signature experiences
Both decks offer a few fun add-ons that add to the whole experience, and they’re great for first time visitors looking for something memorable.
Top of the Rock
The Beam – the most personal experience of any observation deck in New York. On the 69th floor, the exact floor where the original photograph was taken, you’re seated on a replica steel beam, lifted 12 feet into the air and rotated 180 degrees with the Manhattan skyline behind you. A professional photo is taken. The result is your own version of the most iconic construction photograph ever taken.
We had the express pass, which meant skipping the main entry queues. On a busy December day, it saved a significant amount of time, particularly for getting to and from the deck quickly. The Beam photo is a brilliant keepsake and worth having done once. Minimum height 42 inches with an adult. I actually found it to be quite a thrill too, as it tilts slightly and you literally feel like you’re floating in the air.
Skylift – an open-air rotating platform that rises 30 feet above the 70th floor for 360 degree panoramic views. Costs $35 as an add-on. No height restriction; children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Weather dependent. It’s worth knowing the floor is clear, so trousers or shorts are recommended. I did enjoy this, but if I am completely honest, I preferred The Beam.
Our honest take – The Beam is the one worth prioritising. The Skylift is interesting, but the photo opportunity from the ground looking up at it is arguably better than being on it. If budget is tight, do The Beam and skip the Skylift.
The Edge
Glass floor – look straight down 100 floors to the streets below through the triangular glass platform. Our daughter planted herself on it immediately with no fear. I barely put my big toe over it. It’s one of those experiences where how you react tells you something about yourself.
City Climb – a guided harnessed ascent up the exterior crown of 30 Hudson Yards to approximately 1,271 feet – the highest open-air point available to visitors anywhere in the Western Hemisphere. You lean out over Manhattan hands-free at the apex. Costs around $185-205, takes 90-120 minutes. Booked separately from the standard deck ticket. It’s not something we did. Our three year old made that an easy decision, but it comes up consistently as one of the most extraordinary experiences in New York.
Champagne Bar – drinks available on the deck throughout your visit. A good way to mark the occasion, particularly at sunset.
Facilities
Top of the Rock
The Weather Room Café and Bar – on the 67th floor, open daily from 9am to midnight. Named after the Doppler radar that sat on the 70th floor from 1960 to 1995. Artisanal sandwiches, mezze plates, cocktails, coffee and pastries. Terrace seating with Central Park views. Also hosts late night DJ events, so it’s worth checking the schedule if you’re visiting in the evening.
Gift shop – located on the concourse level as you exit, not on the observation deck itself. Top of the Rock branded merchandise, NYC souvenirs and exclusive Rockefeller Center items.
Restrooms – on the 66th floor, including baby changing facilities, which is useful if you’re visiting with young children.
Free Wi-Fi throughout the observation deck.
No outside food or drink permitted on the observation decks.
No tripods permitted – personal photography and video allowed, commercial photography strictly prohibited.
Wheelchair accessible throughout, except The Beam experience.
The Edge
Champagne Bar – drinks available on the deck itself, open to all visitors. Cocktails, champagne and non-alcoholic options.
Gift shop – The Edge, branded merchandise, and New York souvenirs on Level 100.
Indoor observation lounge – a warm up space on Level 100 with panoramic floor to ceiling windows before stepping outside.
Free lockers – available for bags and belongings, unlike Summit One Wheelchair accessible throughout.
Wheelchair accessible throughout.
No outside food or drink is permitted beyond the entrance.
Is it suitable for children?
Top of the Rock
Yes, and one of the more relaxed observation deck experiences for families. The spacious outdoor terraces have high, secure railings throughout. There’s plenty of room to move around, and the not one-way system means you can revisit floors at your own pace rather than being pushed through. We didn’t take the pram, but saw other families with them. Strollers are permitted but must be collapsible.
For the add-on experiences:
The Beam – children must be at least 42 inches tall to ride with an adult, or 52 inches to ride alone. Not suitable for young toddlers. No phones, cameras or bags on the ride. Older children who are confident with heights would enjoy it. Ours was too young, and we wouldn’t have put her on it.
Skylift – no height restriction; children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. More suitable for older children and confident families. It’s worth knowing that the floor is clear, so trousers or shorts are recommended.
The Edge
It’s suitable for children, but the experience depends entirely on how your child responds to heights. The glass floor is the talking point, and our daughter loved it. Children who are confident with heights will love it. Children who are nervous may find the fully outdoor exposed deck and angled walls genuinely unsettling.
Since June 2026, The Edge also has seven new immersive indoor installations on the way up, giving younger children more to engage with than before – though Top of the Rock’s spacious open-air terraces are still the easier, more relaxed option for very young children.
One practical note – the deck is extremely cold and windy in winter. Factor that in with young children and dress accordingly.

Is it worth doing both?
If your budget and time allow, yes. They offer genuinely different experiences that complement rather than duplicate each other. Top of the Rock gives you the classic Midtown experience. The Empire State Building perfectly framed, the open air photography, The Beam and the only December view of the Rockefeller tree from above. The Edge gives you something no other deck can. The Hudson River at sunset, the glass floor and the feeling of being fully exposed at 1,100 feet.
We did both during our ten day trip. Top of the Rock was the more iconic experience. It felt quintessentially New York. The Edge was the more thrilling one. It had the glass floor moment, the wind, the west-facing views. They’re different enough that doing both is genuinely worthwhile rather than repetitive.
If you have to pick just one:
Choose Top of the Rock if…
> Classic Empire State Building shot
> Prefer open-air photography
> Visiting at Christmas for the Rockefeller tree view
> You’re on a budget and want to use your Go City Pass
Choose The Edge if…
> You want outdoor thrills
> You want the glass floor experience
> You want spectacular Hudson River sunset views
> You want immersive light/art installations as well as the view
> You’re on a budget and want to use your Go City Pass
Still deciding?
Planning a December visit?
Both decks are worth visiting in December, but they offer very different experiences in winter conditions.
Top of the Rock
Top of the Rock in December is the essential Christmas visit. It’s the only observation deck in New York with a direct view down onto the Rockefeller Christmas tree, and standing on the 70th floor looking down at the tree lit up below, with the Midtown skyline stretching in every direction, is one of those genuinely special New York moments. The tree is lit from mid-November through to early January. Go at sunset and stay for the city lights, but bring a proper coat, hat and gloves because the temperature drops sharply once the sun goes down on the open air deck.
The Edge
The Edge in December is a different proposition entirely. The outdoor deck is fully exposed to the elements, and in winter, the wind up there is significant, so go prepared with a proper coat, hat, and gloves. That said, a clear winter day gives you exceptional visibility, and the Hudson River in the cold light of December has its own atmosphere.
It’s worth knowing for December
Top of the Rock is the only deck with a direct view down onto the Rockefeller Christmas tree. It’s worth factoring in if that’s a priority.
Top of the Rock’s open air deck is considerably colder in December than The Edge’s indoor lounge, but The Edge’s outdoor platform is more exposed to wind.
Both decks get significantly busier around Thanksgiving and Christmas week – book well in advance.
Sunset comes early in December, around 4:30pm, which means sunset slots fill up quickly.
Make a day of it
If you’re building a full December day around an observation deck visit, pair it with a trip to Dyker Heights Christmas lights in Brooklyn, one of the most extraordinary free experiences in New York in December. And if you’re planning a longer Christmas trip, our 4 days in New York at Christmas itinerary shows exactly how we fitted both decks into a full festive trip.
Final tips
> Book in advance – both decks sell out regularly, particularly at sunset and on weekends. The Edge early bird discount saves up to 35% when booked 14 or more days ahead. Top of the Rock’s Beam sessions fill up days or weeks ahead – book the Beam Combo online rather than hoping to add it on arrival.
> Go on a clear day – both decks are weather dependent. Check the forecast before you go. The Edge has a Sky Assurance weather guarantee if the outdoor deck closes. Top of the Rock’s open air 70th floor is also affected by cloud cover and rain.
> Dress for the weather – both decks have fully outdoor elements. In winter particularly, the temperature on the open air decks drops significantly. Proper coat, hat and gloves are essential for both – The Edge is the more exposed of the two.
> Combine with the neighbourhood – Top of the Rock is steps from Fifth Avenue, Radio City Music Hall and the Rockefeller Christmas tree. The Edge is a short walk from The High Line, Chelsea Market and The Vessel. Neither needs to be a standalone visit.
> The Beam at Top of the Rock – book as part of the Beam Combo from $73. Walk-up upgrades are frequently unavailable, especially at sunset.
> The Edge free concessions – collect your free chocolate bar and brownie at Hudson Yards on the way out. Easy to forget but worth knowing about.
