One Liberty Observation Deck, which opened in November 2015, provides Philadelphia with panoramic bird’s-eye views of the city from the 57th floor of One Liberty Place in downtown Philadelphia.
Operated by Montparnasse 56 (or M56) — a Paris-based company that manages observation decks in the John Hancock Tower in Chicago and the Montparnasse 56 Tower in Paris — the observatory on the 57th floor of One Liberty Place in downtown Philadelphia supplies the chance to score 360-degree views of the cityscape, interact with innovative technology and check out Philly-centric art installations.
Currently the tallest standing attraction within Philadelphia, One Liberty Place makes an ideal locale for this key new urban attraction.
There are currently only a few spots around town that offer any comparable bird’s-eye view of Philadelphia, including the City Hall Tower Observation Deck, R2L and Nineteen.
One Liberty Observation Deck, though, is the first attraction that’s both super accessible and devoted solely to viewing “Philly From The Top.”

The attraction consists of three levels — the ground floor entry, a second-floor ticketing lobby and the 57th-floor observatory.
The observatory offers 360-degree views of Center City and well beyond, with opportunities to view the cityscape in every direction.
In addition to panoramic views, each floor includes interactive experiences and installations including a towering Benjamin Franklin sculpture, Philadelphia-focused listening stations and six multi-lingual touch screens that allow visitors to zoom in on a single point hundreds of feet below.
Get a guided experience of your viewpoint from the 57th floor during the Philly From The Top Tour, offered seven days a week at One Liberty Observation Deck.
Tours are free with admission and point out the iconic sites to see that are spread out across our City of Brotherly Love.
