After sitting silent for more than three years, a City attraction that was shrouded in a cloud of uncertainty has reopened with additional safety precautions in place.

Related Companies, which owns Hudson Yards, closed the structure briefly after the third suicide in 2021 – then reopened it a short time later with a new $10 admission fee, suicide prevention signs and a rule that banned solo visitors. However, it was still lacking the kinds of barriers that city and local community board officials requested.

The honeycomb structure includes 154 flights of stairs and levels and has steel mesh as a safety measure following four suicides.
