i have lived just outside of the city for my entire life and have yet to make it to the top of this amazing landmark. being terrified of heights but having an everlasting love affair with this city, i have been torn on wether or not to make the trip up to the top. by summer’s end, i want to be able to add this to my list of accomplishments.

I’m going to NYC with a friend for a week in June. I’ll finally be able to do this! :)



Night is the best time to go.... 15 months ago

Went up to the top on 24/08/08 at about 11pm and the view was spectacular. Night is definitely the best time to go, when the whole of New York is lit up. Magic.

Some of the best photos I have taken in New York are from the top of the Empire State Buildings. The queues are long an tiring but take an entertaining friend and the time will pass quickly. It is worth the wait.

A NEW YORKER? 2 years ago

So I have lived in NEW YORK MY whole life and i have never been to the empire state building. I find it sad that all tourist visit and have these amazing pictures and yet i have never been there. How can i call myself a new yorker… sigh.

I did this on a clear November evening in 2006. The top was lit up with red, white and blue as the elections were being held the following day. It may have been dark, but New York isn’t short of lights. You can see right down Broadway and Fifth Avenue – if you can cope with going to the edge of the viewing platform.
