Experience Highlights

Looking for that perfect New York skyline shot? Book your tickets for the Top of The Rock observation deck and get ready: the views from its huge open-air terrace are jaw-dropping.

You may not recognize it by name, but what if I told you this is where the iconic “Lunch atop a Skyscraper” photo was taken? Yes, it’s real—and those workers were perched about 850 feet above the city. You can recreate that same shot when you add the “Beam Experience” to your visit.

  • Touch the Manhattan sky with tickets to Top of The Rock. In the heart of Rockefeller Plaza, this skyscraper is home to one of NYC’s biggest and most famous observatories.
  • Enjoy a 360º panorama from the spacious outdoor terrace on the 70th floor. With no glass in your way, you’ll get unbeatable views of the New York skyline, Central Park and the Empire State.
  • Choose your date and time when you book to lock in those unforgettable views from Top of The Rock. You’ll feel the whole city buzzing beneath your feet.

Step by Step

If there’s one thing you can’t skip in New York, it’s seeing the city from the top of a skyscraper. So why choose the Top of The Rock over all the other observation decks? Easy: it’s right in the heart of Manhattan, inside Rockefeller Center, and it has one of the largest, most open observatories in the city.

Your Top of The Rock tickets give you direct access to the building and its two viewing decks. First stop: the glass-enclosed terrace on the 69th floor, with a 360º panorama. Look north for Central Park and Harlem; turn south to spot the Financial District, crowned by the legendary Empire State Building.

Want to go even higher? Head up to the 70th floor. This wide open-air terrace, with no glass in front of you, will test your fear of heights and reward you with some of the best skyline shots in New York.

And speaking of iconic photos, you probably know the famous image taken here during construction: workers casually eating lunch on a steel beam, about 260 meters above the ground. Want your own version? Add the photo option when you book your ticket and take home a one-of-a-kind souvenir.

Rockefeller Center is much more than the Top of The Rock. Once you’ve booked your date and time, explore the complex before going up: stroll through the gardens where the world’s most famous Christmas tree and the most beloved skating rink in the U.S. are set up every year.

At the entrance to the office building that houses the Top of The Rock, a full red carpet welcome and a stunning Swarovski chandelier in the lobby set the tone: pure Art Deco elegance and modernity. But don’t use up your camera battery just yet—this is only a teaser of the views waiting for you above.
