Great experience at the SUMMIT @42 St G/C
Sherifah_W, Dec 2024
There were at least 3 floors and all are different scenery experience on each level. You gotta go there, I went 10 pm and the night view of the City lights, landmarks is to talk about very beautiful, not to mention the first level where you first enter. You have to experience it for yourself.

Disappointing
Carol_P, Nov 2024
The views were amazing, the staff were not. Rushing people through, on their phones, chatting and laughing with each other. Very disappointing and a waste of time and money.
Good experience

Very crowded
Amber_P, Nov 2024
It was incredibly crowded. Line after line after line. Just when you think there couldn’t possible be any more lines, there was another line. A worker said that 7,000 people visit every day
Extraordinary views and art installations
Michael_B, Nov 2024
The views, the art, the lights/fx, spending a great time with my best friend and her daughter. She loved the balloon experience part. Everyone was immersed in the experience and I didn’t hear one complaint! Wore my Trump hat before the election proudly and got nothing but compliments ✌🏼 not to make this about politics it was how I was treated with more than dignity and respect. Wonderful place ❤️❤️❤️❤️
New York from above!
John_G, Nov 2024
Worth experiencing and whoa you are really high up! The 3 floors each have a unique and mesmerizing experience.
