Empire State Plaza

About

Empire State Plaza is the state government complex in downtown Albany, with an outdoor plaza, an underground concourse and the 44-story Corning Tower.

The plaza has a seasonal outdoor ice rink, an observation deck on the 42nd floor of the Corning Tower, the state’s plaza art collection and a visitor center with a gift shop on the North Concourse.

What to know

  • Skate rentals require a photo ID.
  • A dedicated elevator on the Plaza level serves the observation deck, and visitors under 16 need an adult with them.
  • The underground visitor lot is reached from the Empire State Plaza exit of I-787, and the lots take cards only.
