Ophelia · Rooftop Bar · New York
1920s-glamour cocktails and skyline views from the 26th floor of Beekman Tower
Ophelia is a jewel-box cocktail lounge on the 26th floor of the landmarked Beekman Tower in Turtle Bay, ringed by a wraparound greenhouse terrace with 360-degree views of the Midtown skyline, the East River, and Queens. It is the room you picture when you imagine cocktails high above Manhattan.
The setting leans hard into old-world glamour. The Beekman Tower is a 1928 Art Deco landmark, originally the Panhellenic Tower, and Ophelia channels the 1920s and 30s with rich blues, plush velvet seating, and a checkerboard floor. The glass-enclosed greenhouse terrace wraps the top of the building, so the panorama holds up year-round; ask for a window seat facing the East River for the best of the skyline.
