Why families will enjoy it
Edge is an outdoor observation deck extending from the 100th floor of 30 Hudson Yards. Its triangular platform projects beyond the face of the tower, creating a western Manhattan viewpoint with broad sightlines over the Hudson River, Midtown, Lower Manhattan and the dense rail infrastructure below.
What to expect
A section of transparent floor reveals the streets and buildings directly beneath the deck, while angled glass walls lean outward around its perimeter. These architectural elements turn height into a physical experience: the city remains visible through the surfaces separating the platform from open air rather than only beyond a conventional railing.
Plan your visit
The indoor approach explains the construction of Hudson Yards before high-speed elevators rise to the observation level. Once outside, the geometry of the deck frames the skyline differently from the city's enclosed observatories. Its glass floor is a defined feature within a larger architectural panorama, not a separate walking course.
