The Skywalk Observatory at the Prudential Center is becoming View Boston, a three-floor observation deck.

Opening this year, the Boston Properties + Meet Boston project will feature three floors with distinct themes:

👀 The View

As the name suggests, the 52nd floor is home to indoor panoramic views of Boston. An elevated platform called “The Look Out” will use virtual viewers to let visitors zoom in on each neighborhood.

☁️ The Cloud Terrace

The 51st floor will be photo op central. The 360-degree open air roof deck will provide a selfie experience called “The Big Picture,” thanks to a mounted camera placed 2,000+ ft away.

🏙️ The City

The 50th floor will host interactive exhibits like the “Immersive Theater,” featuring a film with behind-the-scenes footage of attractions like Fenway Park. Plus, “The Finale” offers guests a personalized itinerary for further exploring the city. This level will also be home to a family-friendly bistro + private dining space.
