  • This was the free bit that made the trip up the Top of the Rock worth while. Magnificent Art Deco architecture, with fine accompanying murals and statuary and a small, but attractive water garden...

  • Absolutely stunning place and I loved Top of Rock! Once I came back home, it was super exciting to be able to recognize this place in so many movies! The tree is magnificent and the holiday lights make it the perfect place to take beautiful portrait pics! The vibe is also 💯. Do note that there is always gonna be a long line and too much crowd here so your best bet is to either go super early in the morning or stay up super late to get a crowd free pic!
  • Took the center tour. Did not realize the number of buildings and the art adorning them. Very insightful. Then to the top of the rock. Three observation deck levels. What an amazing view. And, from the very top level, the view is 360. Great way to spend an afternoon in New York City.
