“You’ve never experienced New York like this before,” said Jason Horkin, executive director of Hudson Yards Experiences. “Stepping onto Edge is like walking out into the sky. The entire experience is designed to inspire visitors and ignite a new passion for New York City with multiple, build-in thrill elements that ensure Edge becomes a must-see local attraction and a top spot on every travelers’ bucket list.”

A champagne bar will be located on the 100th floor, offering a glass of champagne or a signature cocktail and light bites to enjoy indoors or outside on the sky deck. The bar will be operated by the London-based Rhubarb Hospitality Group, which will also operate Peak, the restaurant, bar, café and event space on the 101st floor.
