Top of the Rock was great, but this was even higher and it was fun to see a new view!

It's worth seeing, and the pass is worth buying because it really saves you a lot of time in line, and if you can take that lift without queuing, a colleague will take you to fast clearance. The twilight view of the sunset is very good, but the disadvantage is that it is very crowded if you go to the corner to take pictures if you need to queue, and up there is more windy, it is recommended to wear a jacket

About Edge at Hudson Yards

Located on the 100th floor of 30 Hudson Yards, Edge is NYC’s highest outdoor sky deck: a dramatic triangular terrace jutting 80 feet into midair with angled glass walls, a glass floor, and a Champagne bar. The ride up is roughly 1 minute, step onto the open-air platform 1,131 ft above the city, and trace the skyline from the Hudson River to the Empire State Building. Indoors, a multimedia pre-show sets the mood; the City Climb harness walk (for the bold!) lets you experience the heights and thrill while leaning out over Manhattan.

Walk onto a floating triangle of glass and granite with 360° views—the Hudson River on one side, Midtown on the other.
