- Urban Campus
Very few visitors to the Empire State Building are aware of what goes on in the nearly 100 floors they don’t see. Urban Campus offers a glimpse into some of the major tenant spaces, amenities, and hidden views of the building as experienced by those who work there. The exhibit highlights some of these contemporary internet-age businesses, visible through peepholes that give guests an insider’s view of what these high-tech offices are like.

The building's newest installation, opened in 2019 after a four-year refurbishment plan, is a top hit for visitors to New York. NYC: Above & Beyond is an interactive video exhibit that questions guests on their interests and length of stay in NYC to tailor itineraries for them that draw on the city's greatest hotspots.
