View from The San Remo, 11C (via Corcoran)
The New York skyline never gets old no matter how many times you see it. With new towers routinely added to the mix and innumerable vantage points to take it all in, the skyline always seems fresh even if certain new towers fail to rise to the occasion.
As a source of optimism far and wide, New Yorkers have further embraced this man-made wonder in their backyard. Dozens of new rooftop bars/restaurants, observation decks, and scenic points have opened up in recent years providing visitors and locals with breathtaking vistas. The luckiest of us can enjoy an inspiring view from their balcony, roof deck, or living room window. The following listings provide their owners such a benefit, but as with most things worthwhile in this city, they come at a pretty penny.
