of the 86th Floor Observatory also allows guests to take their annual holiday
portraits with the most iconic, authentic NYC backdrop. Decorations will remain

top-to-bottom reimagination, which was completed in December 2019. Renovations
include a dedicated guest entrance, an immersive museum with digital and
tactile exhibits, and the completely reimagined 102nd Floor Observatory. Guests
benefit from the industry-leading indoor environmental quality (IEQ)
improvements – like MERV 13 filters and active bi-polarization – for guest
confidence. The 86th Floor Observatory is fixed with newly installed,
temperature activated heat lamps to keep guests warm while they enjoy the
glittery winter vista from the heart of New York City.
The building's world-famous tower lights will shine throughout the holiday
season with special lightings for Thanksgiving, Chanukah, Christmas, and New
Year's Eve.
