The BMT line (N & R trains) and the 6th Ave. Independent line (B, D, F & Q) stop at 34th St./Herald Square. These are the closest subway stations. You should look for the exit for the east side of 6th Ave./Broadway, south side of 34th St. and then walk east one block to the Building at 34th St. and Fifth Ave. You really can't miss the Building once you reach the street level — just look up! The 7th Ave. line (1, 2, 3 & 9) and the 8th Ave. (A, C & E) also stop at 34th St. and from there you would also walk east. All trains, local and express, on all the above lines stop at 34th St. The Lexington Ave. line has a local stop, the 6 train, at 33rd & Park Ave. and you would walk west two blocks from that stop.

Empire State Building Info:

New York's famous Empire State Building, a New York City Landmark and a National Historic Landmark, soars more than a quarter of a mile into the atmosphere above the heart of Manhattan. Located on the 86th floor, 1,050 feet (320 meters) above the City's bustling streets, the Observatory offers panoramic views from both within a glass-enclosed pavilion and from the surrounding open-air promenade. Since the Observatory opened to the public in 1931, almost 100 million visitors have thrilled to the awe-inspiring vision of the City beneath them. Each year over 3.5 million people are whisked to the 86th floor to be where Cary Grant waited in vain for Deborah Kerr in An Affair to Remember, while Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan had their fateful meeting in the movie Sleepless in Seattle. The observatory is handicap accessible.

The building, one of the main tourist attractions when visiting New York City, offers an abundant variety of activities for its visitors. One can tour the Observatory, 365 days per year, day and night, rain or shine, for breathtaking views of Manhattan and beyond. Tickets may be purchased at the observatory ticket office on the concourse, one level below the ground floor.; $ 9.00 for adults; $7.00 for military personnel and senior citizens, $ 4.00 for children 5-11 and children under 5 are free. Information on group rates can be obtained by faxing a request to the Group Sales Office at 1.212.947-1360. The Observatory hours from 9:30 a.m. to Midnight daily. Last tickets sold at 11:25 p.m.
