In New York, a new observation deck appeared at a 300-meter height-with a transparent floor. It is so beautiful that you stop breathing
So far, because of the coronavirus, traveling around the world for many remain only dreams, in New York they came up with a new entertainment for tourists. This is an observation deck with a glass floor at an altitude of 1000 feet (almost 305 meters!) Located in the One Vanderbilt skyscraper - the highest building in Midtown, the central part of Manhattan. The first visitors were able to test the site (and themselves) this week. Officially, the attraction will work only on October 21. But you can already see photos - it's just BRRR!
