The Ultimate Rooftop Terrace Destination
Spring is finally here in New York City, and there’s no better way to embrace the changing season than to be outdoors enjoying the sun on a rooftop. Nestled on the 24th floor of the Equinox Hotel at Hudson Yards, the Electric Lemon rooftop terrace is the ideal setting for the warmer months. Designed by the Rockwell Group, this 8,000-square-foot open-air sanctuary boasts breathtaking panoramic views of the Hudson River and Hudson Yards. Lush greenery and a herb garden line the perimeter of the terrace, offering a delightful mix of textures and aromas.
Indulge in the quintessential New York pastime: soaking up the sun with handcrafted cocktails and delectable light bites. Starr Restaurants, the culinary masterminds behind Electric Lemon, curate a menu of clean, seasonal American cuisine that perfectly complements the al fresco setting. Think bespoke cocktails alongside playful bites like deviled crab and chilled oysters. With local and fresh ingredients, we work with farmers, growers, and artisans of the Mid-Atlantic.
Electric Lemon caters to every desire. Reserve a table and experience a multi-course dinner, choosing from our variety of seating from tables, couches, and lounge chairs to accommodate your needs. For a more casual affair, head to the terrace bar where handcrafted libations and breathtaking views await – no reservation required for this indulgence. Our crafted cocktails are creative and fun. A signature favorite is the “Golden Hour” with milagro silver tequila, del maguey vida mezcal, pineapple, golden beet, ginger, turmeric, and lime – a refreshing must-have in the summertime. Upbeat tunes set the mood for a lively atmosphere, with a resident DJ taking center stage on select nights to offer an extra layer of energy to your rooftop experience.
Ideal for:gathering with friends for a weekend brunch, enjoying happy hour with colleagues, or unwinding with a nightcap after a day in the concrete jungle
The centerpiece of the terrace, a James Plensa sculpture, adds a touch of artistic wonder to your picture-perfect moments. Bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun, its form takes on a new dimension against the backdrop of the city skyline. The sculptures stand on a tranquil water feature beside a cozy fireplace, embodying the terrace’s perfect balance of tranquility and urban energy. As the day winds down, the Electric Lemon rooftop transforms into the best seat in the house to witness the spectacular New York City sunsets.
Unwind amidst stunning views, modern design, and delectable food and drinks. Electric Lemon’s rooftop terrace opens its doors on April 15th, ready to be your ultimate rooftop terrace destination.
