NEW YORK CITY
Bridges. Boats. Sky Decks. New York City Shines.
Views In, Over, and Around Manhattan.
Ranging from free options to tickets costing about $50, these five spots reveal New York’s skyline from fresh perspectives. Take in endless horizons at The Edge sky deck, or let the Hudson breeze carry you on the St. George Ferry Route. Roosevelt Island sits quietly in the East River, framing the U.N. and Chrysler Building, while the Manhattan Bridge offers a perfect look at Brooklyn Bridge and Lower Manhattan. Finish at Transmitter Park, where sunsets bathe the city in color.

Off the Battery Park Ferry Station: Head to The Oculus, architect Calatrava’s jaw dropping transit hub and shopping spot.
