SUMMIT One Vanderbilt
Pushing the limits has always defined the Vanderbilt brand. When transportation magnate Cornelius Vanderbilt decided to make his mark on New York City in the 1880s, he went big, building a magnificent townhouse in Greenwich Village. His descendants went even bigger, erecting the largest private home in the city and endowing the Whitney Museum of American Art. Today, their towering legacy lives on at SUMMIT One Vanderbilt, a three-level, 360-degree observation deck rising 1,100 feet above Midtown Manhattan. Within the glass marvel a series of innovative, immersive spaces combining art, architecture, and technology into an unforgettable trip through time and space. You can never be too sure what unexpected thrills await you at the top.
