Probably the hold up to the lighting. They will give us the full reveal when the crown is complete.

Trying to get a better look at what's going on up there on the upper deck, and the crown. Somethings afoot.

There’s nothing like seeing the birth of new plazas and public space! This one is between the new One Vanderbilt building and GCT, between 42nd & 43rd Streets on Vanderbilt Ave.
Can’t wait for its opening later this year!!

Don't remember the writing from last time, but there will probably be a coating placed on it.

Another note about the pods, they look a lot like the pods at the Sears Tower in Chicago. Not sure if the floor will be glass, but seems likely.

Its looks like a new York city skydeck , same as wills tower but Chicago still has the tallest observation deck in united states
Its so interesting to have one in central park tower roughly 1450ft height

Just to confirm, the observation deck will have the combined experiences of the Ledge and the elevators to give visitors a unique New York experience, as the battle for deck supremacy heats up in the city.
















The Ledge












The combined experience...

That will only work if the Grand Hyatt got sonething too (it might). But there’ll be nothing silly about that view. I’ll be in line to get on it, even if there’s an extra charge.
