SUMMIT turns the view into an experience. Mirrored rooms reflect the sky and the Chrysler Building into infinity, glass ledges let you stand over Madison Avenue, and changing art installations fill the floors above.
You enter from the Main Concourse of Grand Central Terminal, which makes it easy to reach by subway or train.
Prices vary by date and time. We show the official starting price; popular times such as sunset cost more.
The mirrored floors reflect upward, so pants or shorts are more comfortable than skirts.
