The first time that lightning-fast elevator shoots you up to the hundredth floor, your ears pop and your heart starts pounding like crazy. Seeing that endless concrete labyrinth from above is the kind of experience you never erase from your memory. But choosing the right New York viewpoint<\/strong> \u2014 so you don’t blow a fortune on a mediocre view of the wall opposite \u2014 takes a bit of planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The city of a thousand lights now boasts five major observation decks, and each one is aimed at a slightly different kind of visitor.

I’ll also share how to time your ticket purchase smartly ahead of the summer season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
