What are people saying about observatories in New York, NY?
This is a review for observatories in New York, NY:
"We bought tickets for the 8:40 pm entrance in June. This turned out to be a perfect time! We were able to see the sun setting over the water. Our pictures were beautiful. The weather was fantastic. There are plenty of areas for viewing the city 360 degrees around. We felt safe and not overly crowded. We did the beam experience. It was fun and simple. It includes two complimentary digital photos. It was windy when we went up which added to the fear factor. The only downside to our evening was the long elevator line to get back to ground level. But even that wasn't too bad."
