Start at One World Observatory by Eva Kis
“1250 feet below you”
“ To be sure,this is not an extension of the 9/11 Museum – nowhere in the exhibit is the tragedy directly referenced (the airport-style security check is the sole stark reminder). In an oblique nod,visitors enter through a hallway lined with screens showing interviews with everyone from construction workers to executives describing
ONE WORLD TRADE as “the most important building in the country” & ” the new symbol of HOPE.”
The elevators whisk you up in an impressive ascent – from the basement to the 102nd floor in 47 seconds – during which New – York City is built up around you in an animated panorama on the elevator’s walls.
- the 102nd floor is private event space
- down on 101,there are three restaurants:a grab-and-go kiosk,a coffee bar, a casual eatery & an upscale dining spot with a bar
- the viewing gallery spans all of the 100th floor
- on a clear day,you can see for 50 miles
