What is the City Climb in New York?

  • The City Climb, “the ascent of the city” in French, is an absolutely unique experience in New York. The Edge Observatory invites you to scale the facade of the building by following an exterior staircase that rises to the tip of the 30 Hudson Yard tower. The City Climb holds the title of the tallest outdoor climb of a building in the world!
  • You will then reach a viewing platform at the very top of the skyscraper, nearly 366 meters high. No guardrail, no glass: the steel platform is placed directly on the edge of the void. Rest assured, you will be equipped with a harness attached to a lifeline and the experience is carried out in complete safety. Thrills guaranteed and a prodigious view of all of New York! You’ll have the Empire State Building, One World Trade Center and the Statue of Liberty right at your fingertips!
