I booked tickets to SUMMIT One Vanderbilt and had an amazing experience. The views over New York City were incredible, and the interactive exhibits made the visit even more memorable. It's definitely one of the best observation decks I've been to.

So different from the traditional Empire State or Top of the Rock. It feels very futuristic and high-tech. The views of the Chrysler Building are the best you can get. Make sure to wear sunglasses—it gets very bright with all the mirrors!

I visited SUMMIT One Vanderbilt in New York and honestly, it was one of the most surreal experiences I’ve had in the city. The elevator ride itself was already exciting, but once the doors opened... wow. That first step into the mirrored room with the city reflecting from all angles? I literally gasped. It felt like floating in the sky.



The “Air” room was my favorite—everything was mirrored, and the way the light played with the view was just unreal. I went around 6PM so I could catch both daytime and sunset views, and I’m so glad I did. The golden hour light made everything look magical.



They also had these silver balloons in one of the rooms (called "Affinity," I think?), which was really fun and photogenic. It’s definitely not just a view—it’s an immersive experience. I didn’t expect it to be so artistic.



If you’re visiting NYC and want a unique observatory that’s way more than just city views, SUMMIT is totally worth it. Just be sure to wear sunglasses—it gets super bright with all those mirrors!

SUMMIT One Vanderbilt was straight-up insane. I’ve been to Top of the Rock and Edge, but this one? On another level. You don’t just go up and take pictures—this place is like an art installation meets a sci-fi movie.



The mirrored floors made everything feel trippy (in a good way), and the views of the Empire State Building were insane. I went with a couple of friends and we couldn’t stop taking photos. That balloon room was such a vibe—everyone was laughing, taking slow-mo videos, and just having a blast.



We booked our tickets in advance on WAUG so we didn’t have to wait in line, and everything was super smooth. If you're in NYC and want more than just a regular observatory, SUMMIT is a must. Pro tip: go before sunset so you catch both day and night views. Totally worth it.

Program

New York's newly born landmark,
SUMMIT One Vanderbilt

Visit the One Vanderbilt Observatory, where you can enjoy the most impressive views in New York. Built in 2021, this building boasts a massive scale of 77 floors and an indoor area of 48,000 pyeong. In particular, it is emerging as a new landmark among many tourists and New York citizens.

One Vanderbilt has three observatories: Ascent, Levitation, and Summit. Ascent is a special elevator with glass on all four sides. Levitation is also an observatory like a glass box with glass on all four sides. Finally, Summit is said to be an outdoor observatory. Located in Grand Central Station in the heart of New York, it is also a great place to enjoy a panoramic view of downtown New York.


A new reality awaits you

A new reality awaits you at SUMMIT. 
You can have all the experiences at SUMMIT that challenge, inspire, and thrill you. 

SUMMIT's new experience is divided into Ascent, Summit, and Levitation. Now, let me introduce each new reality. 


Elevator that goes up to 324m, Ascent

Ascent, which became more famous after Espa took pictures at SUMMIT One Vanderbilt, is a transparent elevator with everything attached to the outside (?). It is the world's largest outdoor glass floor elevator, allowing you to go up while watching the thrilling view of New York. It's also great for taking fantastic pictures. 

 

Elevator that goes up to 324m, Ascent

At night, you can see the magically beautiful scenery of New York City at a glance. The most wonderful and fantastic view in New York right now. It's SUMMIT One Vanderbilt. Meet the colorful night view of New York at SUMMIT. 

The world of illusion with glass on all four sides, Levitation

Levitation, with glass on all four sides, is located 305m above sea level, and the entire observatory is made of glass, so it's a thrilling observatory just to stand there. Levitation is especially beautiful at sunset time, and the vividness conveyed by the reflected light conveys a truly shocking beauty. 


Introducing the new SUMMIT Premium Experience Tour

Make your journey at SUMMIT even more special with a premium experience! It includes an all-area pass that allows you to enter without queuing, a 90-minute tour with a guide to explore the immersive space spanning three floors, and a digital photo package that captures magical moments.

With the guidance of a professional customer experience tour leader, you can experience a curated course of SUMMIT's iconic highlights, including fascinating works of art, innovative designs, and beautiful views beyond the city skyline. Visit as a premium guest and enjoy priority access from entry to the popular 'Levitation' point!

This experience is conducted in small groups of up to 10 people at a time, and small groups may be formed together depending on reservation status.


Here are some other themes you should visit

In addition to the themes introduced above, you must also see 'Transcendence' located on the 91st floor. This place is made of glass on all four sides, and the floor is made of mirrors, giving you the feeling that the space is infinitely expanding. 

Also, Affinity is a great place to take pictures, with silver balloon sculptures floating around. We also recommend visiting Reflect, where Yayoi Kusama's clouds are on display.

We recommend going at night rather than during the day

SUMMIT One Vanderbilt is really pretty during the day, but we recommend going at night. This is because you can miss out on a very special experience of the lights of downtown New York being reflected. We recommend seeing the night view at the same time if possible.
