Über diese Aktivität

New York City’s newest neighborhood is the largest private real estate project in American history, but behind the gleaming towers and massive art lurk stories of deception, disappointment and death the billionaires don’t want you to know. On this fun, edgy tour your guide will lead you to discover secret passageways, dancing skyscrapers, a giant performance space on massive wheels, a plant covered skyscraper with what’s described as “a 1,000 foot tall vine”. Learn what floor the observation deck The Edge is really on. Hear the story behind the giant work of art known as The Vessel. Is there a plan to make Hudson Yards the Las Vegas of Manhattan? Where did the money for Hudson Yards come from? How did brilliant architects and engineers working at the cutting edge of technology bring Hudson Yards to life? Most people who visit Hudson Yards just take some photos and leave, but if you’re the type of person who wants to experience something more, this interactive tour is for you.
