Compare New York's iconic skyscrapers, the Empire State Building and One World Trade Center!
When you think of New York, you think of skyscrapers that decorate the overwhelming skyline. Among them, the historic Empire State Building and One World Trade Center, the tallest in the Western Hemisphere, are particularly eye-catching. The views from each observation deck are truly spectacular. If you visit New York, it's a must-see spot.
Empire State Building - New York's Icon
Completed in 1931, the Empire State Building was the tallest building in the world for a long time. There are observation decks on the 86th and 102nd floors, and from the main observation deck on the 86th floor in particular, you can see the Manhattan skyscrapers, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, and more. At night, the glittering night view of New York spreads out before you, and you're sure to be taken aback by its beauty.
Actually, my company's New York office is located in this building, so I had the opportunity to visit the observation deck for free. Normally, there is a fee, but it's an experience that is worth more than the fee. The observation deck is open until late at night, so you can enjoy both day and night views.
One World Trade Center – Hope for the Future
A new symbol of New York, built on the site of the World Trade Center that collapsed in the 2001 terrorist attacks. One World Observatory, located on the 100th to 102nd floors of this 541-meter-tall building, offers a panoramic view of New York City and the Atlantic Ocean in the distance.
In the elevator to the observation deck, a video showing the history of New York's development is displayed, making you feel like you're traveling through time. The view from the observation deck is very open, and you can really feel the vastness of New York.
Both are worth visiting!
The Empire State Building gives you a sense of the classic charm of New York, while One World Trade Center is a modern and sophisticated space. Both have different merits, so if you have the time, we recommend visiting both!
