Fantastic view of the city - The good 40 euros are very well spent. On the one hand you are on the tallest building in the western hemisphere and on the other hand you have the perfect view over the city. Especially the view north to Midtown is great.

Dinner a 1000ft up ! - Visited here after visiting 9/11. It was a beautiful clear night and the views were amazing, useful to have the tablet device which helped identify landmarks with associated information. As time was getting on we opted to try restaurant, we had not booked, but the lovely lady on reception couldn’t offer a window seat as they were all booked ( didn’t know you could) we had a lovely quite booth which you could still the amazing views down Manhattan Island back towards the midtown area. Fantastic end to a memorable day. Food was good, but as with everywhere in NYC it’s expensive. Well worth a visit.

One world observatory - Excellent observatory. Not the best of NYC, but the experience is sensational. It's very worth it. Combine it with the visit to the September 11 memorial.

Amazing - I booked this trip with Viator back in the UK. I opted for skip the line tickets with iPad tour once up at the Observatory. I wasn’t disappointed the process to get through security was swift and then we were shown to the elevator up to the top. WOW - the views of Manhattan and beyond were amazing. The iPad was excellent at advising you of what you were looking at. This was a fabulous experience and worth the money in my eyes.

The only skyscraper with 360° views over the whole city is very high - The skyscraper that turns 360 ° on itself and therefore you can see completely New York is the only one in the battered city where there is a 360 ° view all around is very high so the visibility is fantastic excellent. I wanted to tell you that it is not the skyscraper that I liked the most is worth seeing anyway I suggest to book it the period Near sunset to have a clear effect. Much more beautiful photo shield. I found the ticket only for a different time that sunset and then I will not be able to make point of attention very strong attention to backpacks pass under the detector meter everything that looks like even including a photo tripod that hold it and you have to go and collect after me the tripod they took it I could not then use it to take the photo. The queue is very long take it at least half an hour, three quarters of an hour from when you climb inside the building until you are above. There are toilets souvenir shops.
