Perched over 1100 feet above the ground level of Hudson Yards, Edge sky deck offers breathtaking, unprecedented bird’s-eye views of New York City below. Its distinct triangular wedge design, extending 65 feet outward from the side of the building, allows visitors to experience the thrill of soaring high above the city.

As the highest outdoor observation deck in the Western Hemisphere, Edge offers an unrivaled opportunity to take in the grandeur of NYC in a thrilling new way. Residents of Midtown West’s premier luxury apartment towers, 555TEN, can arrive at these exhilarating views in mere minutes.

From the 101st floor, cars and pedestrians move like miniatures below, and iconic landmarks like the Chrysler Building are taken in from above. The record-breaking elevation furnishes a view of New York City in its totality, allowing one to take in the breadth of its architectural history—from the towering Art Deco monuments of the Financial District to the sleek glass towers of Midtown, and the expanse of Central Park, whose ponds and rolling lawns evoke a sliver of pastoral greenery amid the urban expanse.

The tower’s elevator arrives at the 100th floor in under a minute, whisking visitors upward and showcasing the architectural and engineering prowess of the building’s design. On clear days, the sweeping 360-degree views extend up to 70 miles, showcasing the remarkable breadth of the city and its surroundings, including distant Ellis Island across the harbor as well as the Palisades, a line of steep, basalt cliffs that flank the Hudson River.

Beyond the breathtaking views from the outdoor observation deck, Edge entices visitors to indulge in the altitude by other, more leisurely means. The tower’s glitzy champagne bar and upscale Peak Restaurant provide opportunities for casual socializing against the stunning backdrop. The Sky-High Yoga sessions offered in partnership with Equinox allow ambitious zen seekers to flow in the clouds, using the open air and boundless skyline as their private studio.

When it’s time to return to solid ground in Midtown West, you’ll do so with your appreciation for New York City’s urban wonder renewed.

A little background on The New Yorker

The quintessential companion for chic residents of this city and the world, The New Yorker started life in 1925 as a sophisticated humor magazine and has gone on to become the byword for urban culture, publishing everything from the wry cartoons of James Thurber to Annie Proulx’s 1997 short story “Brokeback Mountain.”

The event is spread over a long weekend—Friday, October 6 through Sunday, October 8. Friday’s lineup kicks off in the evening, while Saturday and Sunday are packed with events from morning through night.

The Midtown rentals at 555TEN have a number of outdoor oases on the doorstep: the sprawling banks of Hudson River Park, verdant rooftop bars like Vue180 and Gallow Green— plus, of course, the Hamptons are just a couple of hours’ drive away. But for those lazy summer days when you don’t want to venture far at all, 555TEN’s on-site amenities have you covered.

Taking a Dip

The jewel in the crown of these luxury Midtown rentals has to be its rooftop pool. Here, 56 stories up, you can begin your morning, wind down your evening—or while away an entire Sunday afternoon—in the cooling alfresco waters. South-west facing, the pool gets glorious sunshine for the best part of the day, and its unobstructed views provide unrivaled glimpses of the Hudson—its piers and parks—and the New Jersey skyline beyond. There’s ample room to swim proper lengths, and the kink at one end of the pool provides somewhere to sit back, relax, and soak up the views.

Sunning Yourself

Chaise lounges are liberally scattered poolside—an ideal spot to sip an iced coffee and devour a few chapters of a summer blockbuster. There are stylishly appointed private cabanas too—so when it’s time to seek shade, it’s ready and waiting. Our top tip: come up here for a sunset nightcap and see Manhattan glow in remarkable pinks, purples, and ambers.

Working Alfresco

However balmy the weather might be, sometimes we’ve still got to work. At these Midtown NYC apartments, you can still bask in the summer rays while hosting video calls with clients, catching up on emails, or poring over contracts. While 555TEN’s residents’ lounge provides an elegant midcentury-inspired space to work year-round, its greenery-ensconced terrace is a shoo-in for the summer season. Tables, chairs, and lounge seating invite you to get comfortable with your laptop—and every time you glance up from your screen, you’re greeted with cinematic views from 56 floors up. Now that’s what we call working from home.

Going for Walkies

When temperatures soar, and even a stroll in the park feels a bit of a stretch, simply take your four-legged friend to one of 555TEN’s two dedicated dog runs. Here, your beloved pooch can let off steam in a safe (and cool) environment; though fully covered and enclosed, the dog runs are also open to the elements, meaning you and your furry pal get your fix of fresh air. It’s also a great spot to meet new dog/human friends!
