Top of the Rock

The "Top of the Rock" has three observation decks, starting at the 67th floor of Rockefeller Plaza in midtown Manhattan. This is a first-rate sightseeing attraction in New York City, not only because of the terrific views and the decades of history, but also because the visitor experience is top-notch.

Visitors will love the timed admission (read: no line-ups), and the GPS-activated audio/visual guide that knows what landmarks you're looking at.

Rockfeller Center is a NYC landmark, fondly known for its outdoor skating rink, also home to NBC Studios (take a tour) and tourist favorite Radio City Music Hall.
