From: hhasund on 15 Apr 2007 05:21 Hi, I'm taking my younger brother to New York in May, and I was hoping to surprise him with a restaurant with a great view. My brother is a skyscraper enthusiast, so hopefully we'll be able to spend an evening on top of one. I was at the restaurant at top of WTC in 2000, and was very impressed. Are there any similar restaurants or bars on top of skyscrapers in Manhattan? Sincerely, HH Norway

There's a revolving restaurant on top of the Marriott in midtown. It's only 40-some stories up, so I don't know if that's a skyscraper. However, it has a great view of midtown Manhattan. As a restaurant, it's rather overpriced, but I think there's also the possibility of having a snack or something at a less exorbitant price. -- Barbara Vaughan My email address is my first initial followed by my last name at libero dot it.
From: k on 15 Apr 2007 20:14 There is 'Top of the Sixes' at 666 5th Ave, with a great view north over Central Park. It's not that tall of a building, maybe 40 stories, but it's a pretty neat and friendly place. There's a bar higher up in Rockefeller Center, The Rainbow <something>. They have some cafe food there. Since the wtc came down, I think that's your best bet, or the aforementioned Marriott. For whatever reason, NY doesn't have much of an inclination toward elevated dining. This just in! Forget Top of the Sixes unless you like cigars. Just last Dec it became the Havana Club, a cigar bar. That makes the Marriott your best bet for dinner.

From: Brian K on 17 Apr 2007 03:10 If you don't mind roughing it, get take out of your choice and go to Top Of The Rock at 30 Rockefeller Center. At this time it's the tallest observation deck in NYC. You need to buy tickets in advance. That's the only way I can see you eating and being on a sky scraper. The alternate thing to do is to eat dinner before or after going to Top of The Rock. -- ____ Brian M.
