This is a permanent attraction.

Deets: Summit One Vanderbilt will be the new observatory in the crown of One Vanderbilt, a 1,401-foot-tall commercial supertall in Midtown East. Opening on October 21, the 65,000-square-foot experience center will top the 77-story skyscraper with views of all five boroughs. One Vanderbilt encompasses an entire block immediately to the west of Grand Central Terminal with Summit One Vanderbilt directly connected directly to the massive transit hub.

Features include Ascent, the all-glass enclosed elevator that travels up the outside of the building and Levitation, suspended glass sky boxes that jut out of the building at 1,063 feet above Madison Avenue. Immersive art installations by Kenzo Digital will use the observation deck as a background for its storytelling.

There is also an outdoor bar with seating areas and the highest urban outdoor alpine meadow in the world. Danny Meyer’s Union Square Events is handling all culinary offerings, which include multiple bars, an all-day cafe, and grab-and-go snack stations.

Hint for the Average Socialite: Tickets are available now!

Entrance located on the Main Concourse of Grand Central Terminal
