The weather forecast for the 4th suggests clear skies and 63°F on the 26th Floor Observation Deck. Since there is never enough outdoor seating, consider bringing up any handy folding chairs.
And remember that there is also indoor seating (at 74°F) in north-facing Apartment 2605, which is always open for the occasion. We have an excessive number of tall windows. This year they are freshly washed, inside and out. Indoors, we can seat a dozen and stand another dozen.
We will have a half-dozen outdoor seats on our little patch of the roof amidst the flowering plants (good crop this year) nibbled by Hector the Rusty Dinosaur.
Fireworks usually start about 10:15 PM but feel free to drop in and wander around any time after 9:11 PM. That’s official sunset, when we cage the cats, prop open the front door, and set out some bowls of very fresh local strawberries.
