In the case of New York City’s newest observation deck, SUMMIT One Vanderbilt, the city is the candle, but oh, what a lovely light this many-mirrored space is giving off! Novelist Edith Wharton once wrote, “There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.” Each of the attractions form part of the 65,000-square-foot entertainment area and observation deck located at the peak of One Vanderbilt, a 3.3 billion development designed by architecture firm. ![]()
