cold & elated - I went November time and it was snowing heavily & my b/f (now husband) proposed! (Only got to the 86th floor observatory platform, they don't open the higher level in winter)

We were there a year ago this week, first thing we did was to go up the Empire State Building, we paid for the audio tour as well, which made the incredible sights we were seeing come to life, felt very stupid after we discovered we had left our camera behind at our hotel. We came down at about 19-00 but should have stayed up there until nightfall, missed an opportunity to see NY light up. This is one of the MUST things to do in NY.

Only made it to the observatory - they weren't allowing people to go further up (don't know whether it was because I went on Christmas Eve or because genuinely don't). Was a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours. Good views of the city, particularly looking down towards lower Manahttan. Take the audio tour if you. Get there for about 9am to avoid the queues.

Awesome !, Its one of those places in the world that has to be experienced. True not that 'pretty' when you actually get to the viewing platform but none the less an amazing experience. We did the Empire and the Twin Towers, [RIP] in the same day, just electric, so consider myself to be one of the lucky few that have experienced them both.

Do you recommend elevator? under no circumstances took that one. yet I did sense my ears pop when I rode each and every of ways as a lot because the remark deck of the dual Towers. It stopped, and that i have been given off to bypass on yet another that went all a thanks to the 106 th. floor. And now, all I see is the Empire State construction as a history for stupid communicate T.V. shows that do not interest me one bit. deliver again the dual Towers.
