One Times Square Skywalk Experience in Times Square, New York – Suitable for visitors seeking unique city views and history

Step inside One Times Square, the historic site of the New Year's Eve Ball Drop, and explore the newly opened 19th-floor Skywalk. This attraction offers elevated, 360-degree views of Manhattan, including Central Park, the Village, and Midtown’s skyline.

The building, originally completed in 1904 as The New York Times headquarters, now serves as a next-generation entertainment complex. Your visit begins with a glass elevator ride past Times Square’s billboards up to the Skywalk, where you can walk on a glass walkway 19 stories above the streets.

While on the Skywalk, you have the option to purchase a limited edition 2025 Commemorative Crystal from the Constellation Ball, crafted by Waterford. These crystals, available in three sizes—1.5' Infinite Beginning, 3' Infinite Light, and 4' Infinite Joy—were part of the NYE Ball’s public unveiling before being replaced for the 2026 ball drop.
