Thank you Jon for doing these videos! I actually created a Here Be Barr KZread folder so I can refer back when I'm ready to hop a bus with my little electric wheelchair and see all the neighborhoods you've highlighted. ❤️😊
8:23 That elevator ride with that flying simulation, is epic, and like a icing on the cake after those views from up there and all the attractions inside!! With no doubt, that's a new must see tourist spot for New York City!!
The sky deck reminds me of the CN Tower in Toronto. It has a glass observation deck and my aunt and I went there in 2003 and she was a little nervous about how high up it was and you could just see sidewalk below under the glass. I thought it was the coolest thing ever! The view from the top of the skyview deck looks incredible! I've never seen a cooler elevator in my life! I have to see that place someday!

A few weeks ago when I went to the hudson yard , the edge wasn't yet open to visitors. It looks AMAZING, I will definitely check it out. I can't imagine the amount of people who will be there during summer , when it's warm😊
I work at the Space Needle in Seattle, and definitely one of the things I enjoy doing when I travel is seeing different observation decks and seeing how they operate compared to what we do. I was in NYC in Feb 2019, and did 1 world trade, Empire, and Top of the Rock. Loved them all for different reasons, but I heard about this place opening "next year", so when I return this will be one of the first things I do! Great Video!

Love the vid. Been there after the opening I was very lucky before the lockdown. Loved the view from The Edge.
As a Long Islander, every time a new attraction opens up in the city, I always get so happy and excited, since I don’t go into the city very often. I think the only “attractions” that I’ve ever seen from the outside are Times Square, and the Empire State Building. As for the inside, I’ve been in Radio City Music Hall but only for Christmas. So the Edge and also One World Observatory are definitely some attractions that I need to see.

Melbourne Australia has the EDGE too on the tallest Skyscraper in Australia & with a glass floor & glass wall where you can see the city ahead & underneath your feet, Its been already a tourist attraction for a few years. The view here is spectacular too like in New York, the view here is over Melbourne CBD, Australian Open tennis stadiums (Australian Open Grand Slam), the pacific ocean & surroundings..
once this lockdown lifts i'm going everywhere in the city i have been putting off, edge , broadway guggenheim, sail around the city, u name it cost is no object lol
