Interlude Rooftop Lounge, Rooftop terrace bar in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, United States.
Interlude Rooftop Lounge occupies the 38th floor of a Midtown Manhattan building and offers a modern outdoor terrace with panoramic views of the city skyline and Times Square. The terrace stretches across the rooftop with open sightlines across the theatre district below.
The lounge emerged from the growing popularity of rooftop bars in New York that took off in the mid-20th century and reshaped the city's dining scene. This trend reflects how restaurants and bars began claiming the sky above the city streets.
The lounge sits in the heart of the Theatre District near Broadway and draws theatergoers who stop by before or after catching a show in the neighborhood.
The best time to visit is early evening to enjoy the views in good light, and the lounge is easily reached by elevator from the street below. Visitors should dress appropriately and keep in mind that the terrace may be less accessible during poor weather.
The lounge is often overlooked by visitors focused on the main tourist spots, yet it offers a less crowded way to take in the same city views as more famous rooftop venues. The combination of high elevation and a smaller crowd makes it a place where you feel closer to the skyline.
