A wondrous piece of art with 154 flights of stairs, 2.5K individual steps and 80 landings. Vessel offers some magnificent views in one unique exhibit . Tickets are free but you'll still need timed ones

Awesome pics, it’s a staircase for the mall but still cool piece of art right near the high line

If you didn’t get a chance to book tix online, there is a line that moves very fast and they hand out tickets.

Architecture fans got to come visit this landmark designed by Thomas Heatherwick . Also, obviously a place to get epic instagram shots.

Amy Cummings

They’ll give you a ticket for a time slot to come back for. If you’re looking to pass time, head to High Line Pizza for a slice, or Death Ave Taproom for a drink.

Go eat at Wild Ink ! While having some delicious food, enjoy the amazing view of the Vessel. Up close !

Designer Thomas Heatherwick 's $260m structure debuted in 2019 and closed public access in 2021 after multiple jumpers took opportunity. Expect full mesh barriers for its late 2024 reopening

cool spot and quite popular now!

Raquel Griesang

Amazing place!! Couldn’t get enough of it

Jose Martin Sanchez

Book free tickets in advance to avoid waiting. Don't bring carry-on bags as you will have to leave them at entrance. The same goes baby strollers. Enjoy!

Ailie Chang

Be sure to reserve your tickets to walk up the Vessel online ahead of time. If they don’t have anymore online, you can go onsite at 9:30am to try to get a time slot .

???????????????????????????? ????????????????????????

Do not try filling it with liquid. Its got an awful lot of wholes in it for being a vessel.

Jack Wolff

Humans are a very strange species... a very artistic , aesthetic and symmetric structure and engineering beauty... but a senseless and vane human creation

Cynthia Lin

Climb to the top for some views , it’s a trendy sight for now but can get old fast

Jun Oh

What an ugly building.

Victoria Chan

The building is special but it is not esthetic at all. Elevator only opens to disabled, even if you are pregnant or elderly, you still get no exception by the rude staff there.

Alan x el mundo

Los boletos son gratis y se obtienen en línea dos semanas antes o cada mañana a las 8am.

Maria Lavega

Una suerte de escultura interactiva que ofrece vistas espectaculares del río Hudson, la costa de New Jersey y el nuevo paseo Hudson Yards. Los tickets son gratis; se pueden obtener por QR ahí mismo.
