USA View from “Top of the Rock“, New York City
One of the best views in NYC! On the 70th floor of Rockefeller Center, you can enjoy the 360-degree panoramic view of the Big Apple from the three indoor and outdoor platforms of the "Top of the Rock".
Much better for me than the Empire State Building observation deck, because obviously you can watch & capture the ESB itself :)
And behind you, looking to the north, Central Park in all its glory.

Photography Tips
Take different lenses with you. With a telephoto lens, you can get closer to interesting buildings, with a 35mm or 50mm lens you can take an overview of the many buildings. Tripods are not allowed! But you can use a mini-tripod or put your camera down directly on concrete curbs to get your as sharp as possible your shots and shoot long exposures without any problems.
Be sure to book the sunset ticket (additional $10) for the best views.
