The “Hudson Yards” in the Manhattan borough of New York are one of the must-sees in the metropolis. In the past few years there has been a lot of construction and it is one of the largest urban development projects in the USA. Now another attraction opens its doors.
On March 11, 2020, tourists and locals will have the opportunity to see the city from a completely new perspective for the first time. “The Edge” protrudes around 20 meters from the building at a height of 395 meters in a triangular shape. Glass walls ensure the safety of visitors. Even the floor is partially glazed so that the brave can look straight down on the streets of New York. There is also a bar so that guests can enjoy a champagne or cocktail while enjoying the beautiful view.
In future, the platform will be open 365 days a year from 8 a.m. to midnight. The tickets cost the equivalent of around 34 Swiss francs for adults, and children aged 1 to 12 pay the equivalent of around 30 francs. Tickets can be purchased either online at www.edgenyc.com or at the box office on level four of Hudson Yards.
