 TOP
OF THE ROCK™
An experience in history and scenery that culminates
with unparalleled views of New York City from the newly renovated
Observation Deck on the 70th floor of 30 Rockefeller Plaza,
in the heart of midtown Manhattan at Rockefeller Center. The view
itself is unique and astonishing, unobstructed for 360 degrees
and stretching for miles in every direction. It includes a panorama
of Central Park and the northern half of Manhattan that can't
be found anywhere else. New York's other landmarks are visible
as well, including the Chrysler Building, Times Square, the Hudson
River, the East River, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the Statue of
Liberty. It is, quite simply, the most spectacular view in NYC.
