One Vanderbilt has three observatories: Ascent, Levitation, and Summit. Ascent is a special elevator with glass on all four sides. Levitation is also an observatory like a glass box with glass on all four sides. Finally, Summit is said to be an outdoor observatory.

SUMMIT's new experience is divided into Ascent, Summit, and Levitation. Now, let me introduce each new reality. 


Elevator that goes up to 324m, Ascent

Ascent, which became more famous after Espa took pictures at SUMMIT One Vanderbilt, is a transparent elevator with everything attached to the outside (?). It is the world's largest outdoor glass floor elevator, allowing you to go up while watching the thrilling view of New York. It's also great for taking fantastic pictures.

The world of illusion with glass on all four sides, Levitation

Levitation, with glass on all four sides, is located 305m above sea level, and the entire observatory is made of glass, so it's a thrilling observatory just to stand there. Levitation is especially beautiful at sunset time, and the vividness conveyed by the reflected light conveys a truly shocking beauty.

Also, Affinity is a great place to take pictures, with silver balloon sculptures floating around. We also recommend visiting Reflect, where Yayoi Kusama's clouds are on display.

We recommend going at night rather than during the day

SUMMIT One Vanderbilt is really pretty during the day, but we recommend going at night. This is because you can miss out on a very special experience of the lights of downtown New York being reflected. We recommend seeing the night view at the same time if possible.
