In addition to renowned 360-degree views from the heart of Midtown Manhattan, the Empire State Building Experience now includes a beautiful new entry area with some great photo ops, historical and sustainability exhibits, and a complementary interactive audio device, offering a museum-like experience from the 1st floor to the 102nd.
