New York City to get a new skydeck near Grand Central

New York

NEW YORK visitors are going to have another choice for a high-altitude view of the city.

SL Green Realty Corp has announced that 1 Vanderbilt, the office skyscraper it's building just west of Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal, will have an indoor-outdoor observation deck more than 305 metres above the street. Foundation work has begun for the Midtown tower, set to be New York's second-tallest at 1,401 feet and slated for completion in 2020.
