Top of the Rock Observation Deck Tickets Overview
Top of the Rock sits at the crown of 30 Rockefeller Plaza in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. Three observation levels occupy floors 67, 69 and 70 at up to 259 metres above the street, giving a perspective that sits at the geographic centre of Manhattan with views stretching in every direction across the full island and beyond.
The defining advantage of Top of the Rock over other New York observation decks is its view of the Empire State Building. Every other observation deck in Manhattan is either at the same height as or lower than the Empire State Building. From Top of the Rock at 30 Rock the Empire State Building rises to the south as part of the skyline, creating the most photographed city view in New York. Central Park stretches to the north in the same unobstructed sweep.
The 70th floor is the fully open-air rooftop with no glass barriers, giving the most direct and unmediated outdoor experience of any major New York observation deck. The 69th floor has frameless glass panels and the 67th floor is enclosed. The Sky Shuttle glass-ceiling lift, the Beam Walk interactive installation recreating the famous 1932 Lunch Atop a Skyscraper photograph, and the Skylift rotating open-air platform launched in 2024 add further dimensions to the experience.
