Standard Ticket

This is the basic ticket, granting access to all three levels of immersive experiences featuring art and emotions along with 360-degree vistas.

Ticket + Glass Elevator

For those seeking a thrill, the SUMMIT Ascent option enhances your visit; you will not only enjoy the full observation deck experience but also embark on the most exhilarating part: a ride in a glass elevator on the exterior of the skyscraper!

This option takes you up 12 floors along the side of One Vanderbilt in a completely transparent cabin, reaching an altitude of 364 meters (1,194 feet)—the highest vantage point in Midtown Manhattan. The uninterrupted floor-to-ceiling views as you ascend the building's façade will provide a memorable perspective of the New York City skyline.
