Spyglass

One of New York's newest rooftop bars is Spyglass, which opened in June on the 22nd floor of the just-opened Archer Hotel in the garment district. The indoor-outdoor space from David Burke Group offers full views of the Empire State Building from sleek highboy tables or tufted purple leather barstools, a design style that mixes in references to the 1940s and 1950s. Sypglass serves small plates from the hotel's restaurant, David Burke Fabrick. It holds 115 people for receptions.
