„(Pedestal for) Life (Imagination for New York City)“, 1993/1994, Reto Jeltsch, installation of thoughts/imagination

The imagination is visualized at a height of 320 meters from the observation deck of the 86th floor of the empire State Building

The outdoor area of this open space can be walked almost all around, allowing the imagination to be realized/visualized in any direction of the compass; however, the recommended location would be on the parapet on the south side of the tower, which provides a view in direction of downtown and the southern tip of Manhattan

Location: Empire State Building, 350 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY/Observation deck, 86th floor
