Living on the ‘Edge’ with new Hudson Yards deck
BY SHAYE WEAVER
Starting next March, New Yorkers
can get the highest outdoor view
of their city at Hudson Yards’
“Edge.”
The soon-to-open attraction is on
the 100th floor of 30 Hudson Yards,
a new building reminiscent of the
Avengers’ tower with its landing
pad-like observation deck, and will
be the western hemisphere’s highest
outdoor viewing observatory.
Guests will actually be able to
inch their way out onto the glassbottomed
deck, which will be 1,131
feet high with views of the city,
Western New Jersey and the rest of
New York up to 80 miles, according
to Related Companies, its developer.
Photos and video released by the
company show renderings of people
taking their photos laying down on
the glass or in front of its angled
glass walls with views of Downtown
Manhattan and New Jersey.
Not only will people get to take
photos up there, but they’ll be able

They’re available for purchase now
at edgenyc.com with access beginning

The observation deck itself extends
80 feet from the building, which Related
has called “a marvel of modern
engineering and structural design.”
The 765,000-pound deck was assembled
from 15 sections that have
been bolted together and anchored
to the sides of the building. Each
glass panel surrounding it weighs
1,400 pounds.
Edge is the latest in announced
openings for Hudson Yards, which
officially opened its Shops & Restaurants
to the public in March. Already,
the area has been deemed the
“most expensive neighborhood in
New York City” by Property Shark
with a median average sales price of
$4,994,792.
