Level R at the Empire Hotel
Though the sleek outdoor lounge enforces a no-denim dress code, the Empire Hotel's rooftop bar, Level R, is definitely worth a visit. Boasting expansive views of Central Park and Lincoln Center, watch the sunset from your 12th floor perch and reminisce about the exploits of Chuck Bass.
