Hudson Yards Public Square and Gardens — Attraction in New York

I had the opportunity to visit the Hudson Yards in New York City with my wife and cousin, and it was truly an impressive experience. The beauty and atmosphere of the place are extraordinary. Let me give you some information about the Vessel, a sculpture designed by the British designer Thomas Heatherwick. The Vessel is a sculptural piece that you can actually walk into. Described as an interactive artwork offering engagement and experience in one of the world's busiest cities, the Vessel resembles a giant beehive basket in appearance, but it's actually made up of interconnected steel staircases instead of wax. It consists of 80 sections spread across 15 stories, with a total of 2,500 individual steps to climb, spanning 154 flights of stairs. It weighs a whopping 600 tons.

The hexagonal base of the structure is 50 meters in diameter and widens to 150 meters at the top tier. Vessel can accommodate up to 1,000 visitors at once.

The team at Heatherwick Studios designed the Vessel so that each level could be divided into segments. The bronze steel and concrete pieces were manufactured in a factory in Italy and assembled like a giant 3D puzzle when they arrived in New York.

While the Vessel can be a choice spot for those looking for a workout, there are elevators available on every level for those who prefer not to climb.

Overall, the Vessel is a breathtaking addition to the New York City skyline, offering both artistic beauty and a unique way to...

Overall fun place to visit, but wish the tour of the vessel was free the way it used to be 7 years ago. Not sure why they now have a ticket price. Seems like everything needs to be ‘priced’ for it to have any value anymore, this mindset is making Manhattan look more like Disney world or Times Square than authentic works of art to be consumed by all. The place does get very crowded on weekends and holidays with tourists glaring at you for taking too long to take your photo. Also cars coming in and out of the parking lot by the shops makes it very narrow and chaotic to enjoy a moment here. Like I said pretty much Times...

The Hudson Yards is usually such a happening place and during Christmas, with all the lights it is breathtakingly beautiful! We also happened to visit Santa's Secret.. the show had some very talented artists and was executed brilliantly. Best to buy tickets online in advance for the show as they get sold out pretty fast. We were asked to share tables with another couple initially but we moved to some high chairs by ourselves later on. Drinks and food are available inside but are...
