We were last at Top of the Rock about 15-16 years ago and it was an elevator ride and a photo backdrop. Today, it’s been built into an entire experience that absolutely justifies the ticket price. It’s well staffed with informed, friendly people and the crowd is well controlled—and this is during Xmas week! The historical 5 minute movie is a nice intro. There are many spaces to see different views. There’s a bar-restaurant at the top but was crowded. You can see three different levels, which is fun. We didn’t do either of the add-ons—riding the beam like the metal workers or the upper view ride. But we didn’t feel like we missed out. It was very cold but the glass barriers helped. I’m an ex-NYer who once worked at 30Rock so I have a soft spot for things like this. But I would recommend it over the ESB because you get great views and the ESB is in the view!
