Not sure, but as others have said, the elevator ride is extremely quick. Plus the ceiling has animation that male it look like it's open so it probably doesn't feel as small as it could

The elevator ride isn't long at all. Plus it is a large elevator as well.

They do the Empire State Building stair run every year. Don't know why you couldn't...

My wife suffers from the same issue but this elevator is so fast you're literally up 80 floors in less than 10 seconds and it's not jolty at all.

It's all elementary now. Only advice I can give you is to try emailing the managing company for that building or call the 800 never to ask!

You van take an elevator to 80the floor and then to 86the floor

Neerja Tiwari | Aug 25, 2022

i dont think so !! In any case you need an elevator up to the 80 th and then you go around and take the elevator to 86 th! the view there is from outside and the breeze on your face will take away all the anxiety! coming up they show you a video of the building under construction so your mind is occupied

No

I HATE elevators, but thankfully there is a video to distact you, and its stupidly quick! You cannot walk up the 86 floors, imagine all those stairs!!

The elevator is fast, it will be well worth it.

Greg K | Aug 25, 2022

You cannot access all the floors on this building which means they can't have stairs to the floors.
