Full description
Discover SUMMIT One Vanderbilt, an extraordinary fusion of art, technology, and architecture that transforms how we connect with the city around us.
Located at the top of one of New York's tallest towers, SUMMIT invites you into a world of immersive, multi-sensory installations that blend imagination and reality.

Explore AIR by Kenzo Digital, a mirrored environment that multiplies the city skyline around you. Wander through open spaces that feel as if they float among the clouds and experience New York from a completely new perspective.
Test your courage at Levitation, where two glass ledges extend over Madison Avenue. Stand above the city and feel the thrill of being suspended more than 1,000 feet in the air.
Step into Affinity, a room filled with reflective silver balloons that spark curiosity and playfulness. Then head to the open-air terrace on the 93rd floor for panoramic city views stretching across the skyline.
For a more intimate visit, choose Air at Night, when SUMMIT transforms into a glowing world of light and sound. Enjoy vibrant LED displays, energetic music, and handcrafted cocktails from the bar on the 93rd floor.
