I love spending time at the 96th floor of the Hancock Building in Chicago, sipping an adult beverage and seeing the view. It's magical.
Is there a place I do that in New York City at Christmas?

The new Hyatt Times Square on 45th between 7th and 6th now has (I believe) the highest cocktail lounge in NYC, even if it's only at the 54th floor. Called Bar 54. It's delightful with great views. Of course the drinks and snacks are overpriced as expected, but at least they are really very good.

Ooops. When will I learn to look at dates and realize this was an old thread topped by somebody to advertise? Sorry.

I keep getting caught that way too - look at the last post and forget to check the first.

Poor Eileen. Probably never got her rooftop drink.

Eileen left. She only has herself to blame.
