One of our favorite, old-school NY experiences: The entire interior and exterior of the building are a treat. Lobby and elevators sparkle in their original Art-Deco designs. The main (outdoor) observation deck is located on the 86th floor and there's another, smaller, indoor observation platform on the 102nd floor. The best time to visit is golden hour/sunset on a day with good visibility. Definitely buy tickets in advance to skip excessive wait times, but figure into your plan that it can take quite long to reach the observation platform, especially on weekends. Give yourself enough buffer before the sun sets. Depending on the age of your kids, BBQ dinner in Koreatown around the corner on 32nd Street between Broadway & 5th Ave is our family's go-to. With younger kids, you may have to opt for afternoon snacks ahead of the visit, but there are plenty of great options for light meals as well. NOTE: if you want to SEE the Empire State Building in your city panorama views, you have to go up at Rockefeller Center instead (see: Top of the Rock)

The main deck observatory on the 86th floor has been the setting for dozens of movie and television scenes, as well as tens of millions of unforgettable moments. The open-air observation deck wraps around the building's spire, providing 360-degree views of New York, Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond.
