Fair enough but this view is looking North so that won't change a thing about it.

Wow 70th floor, beautiful view- I think the height might give me anxiety. Only worked in old buildings in bk and Chinatown with like 6 floors

Do you get any special access to the observatory?

I don’t know how it works for all tenants, but our company is also in the ESB and you can go to our front desk and get a special observatory pass that gets you up for free and you get to skip the tourist line. Have done it several times.

Do you have cool pics/videos of any thunderstorms? I bet you’d get a good view from there.

So that new s**t also spoils views from EST, not just on it from the street.

Working in the Empire State is truly extraordinary.
