Rooftop tours at the Manhattan Municipal Building

There’s a new spot to get a view of the city from above and this one doesn’t come with a hefty price tag. Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Department of Citywide Administrative Services Commissioner Yume Kitasei have officially opened reservations for Centre 360, a brand-new, completely free panoramic experience atop the historic David N. Dinkins Municipal Building.

For the first time in the building’s history, the public is invited to ascend more than 500 feet above street level into the building’s iconic cupola. Following a $6 million restoration project—which repaired the historic structure, restored the rotunda landing and installed glass safety barriers—the space is ready to welcome up to 200 visitors each week. The historic grand opening on June 11 is perfectly timed to welcome residents and tourists ahead of the city’s first local World Cup match.

The experience begins at the CityStore at 1 Centre Street, where small groups of five people at a time will be transported up to the cupola. Once at the top, visitors can enjoy a sweeping, 360-degree view that stretches from the Empire State Building down to the harbor, with the East River bridges fully visible.
