New Spring activation takes “going green” to new heights.
One World Observatory, the acclaimed observation experience at the top of One World Trade Center and a major destination in Lower Manhattan, today announced its new spring experience The Urban Oasis at One World Observatory. Perfectly timed to Earth Day, this entertaining and informative activation opens today and runs through May 31, 2023.
The Urban Oasis at One World Observatory is a luscious green, indoor landscape designed to educate visitors on the sustainability efforts of One World Trade Center as well as city-wide efforts to help build a greener future in New York City. Through engaging visuals, visitors will learn how the building makes effective use of daylight, water efficiency, clean air, sustainable materials, and landscaping.

Additionally, The Urban Oasis at One World Observatory will feature information on green space initiatives throughout the city and what visitors can do on their own to reduce negative impact against the environment.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to commemorate their experience in a photo moment that features local plants, plays of light, and other sustainable features, set against the panoramic views of the city - signature of the One World Observatory experience. Specially-themed cocktails and refreshments will also be available in the space for visitors to enjoy.
