There were no photos to add because there was ZERO visibility. What was memorable, however, was the extremely fast and smooth elevator ride to the supposed top of the building, but I couldn’t tell because there was nothing to see. As far as my daughter and I knew we could have gotten only as far as the 5th floor(!).
When we arrived at the Trade Center, the electronic signs signaled “clear visibility” ( the day was very overcast at ground level so I did call earlier to see if I could cancel…. but was told I couldn’t because it was less than 24 hours). We decided to proceed ahead… At the gate we were advised that visibility was poor and did we want to reschedule. We were only in NYC for two days and didn’t know we would be back ( and no refund). Since we were already at the venue we decided ( as advised) to go to the top and at least visit the bar/restaurant. We took the elevator, and as I already stated, the ride was extremely smooth and quick—so smooth and fast that it is easy to surmise we never got above the 5th floor.. At the “top” we did walk around but certainly chose not to purchase overpriced drinks and food. We left.
It would have been nice to have been able to cancel the “tour” earlier in the day for a refund, but that was not an option given to me. I couldn’t reschedule because I do not know when I would have another chance to visit…
Under the circumstances, I am requesting a full refund of my tickets.
We could have been in a basement somewhere and had the same view of NYC as at the top of the World Trade Center.
Please reconsider…
Thank you,
John
