I would avoid this area if you have any self respect. It is a millionaires playground and living space meant to service them. The vessel is cool and free to go up in. You get great views of the developers dream to make NYC more expensive and exclusive than it already is. All the shops are the same as you would see in a mall in Olrando or any other place in the city. The best thing about it is the highland is connected to it and in a minute you can put the whole thing behind you. If you are on a shopping trip and need to go to the mall. There you are.

Its odd but it appears that you never went on our tour. I am confused why this review is here?

We visited the new Vessel at Hudson Yards on the first weekend it opened. Despite the wind and cold, we had a great time climbing up to the top. There were views from every direction. It was easy to stop and enjoy the experience. I can see it becoming quite crowded in the summertime, but it wasn't crowded while we were there, and so there was very little wait time. A bonus: a new shopping experience is located next door!

Looks cool! You have a long wait to get tickets and it is just walking up and around Cool to look at, but not worth the wait. Very noisy due to all of the construction around it.
