The Vessel at Hudson Yards, a popular tourist attraction in New York City, will reopen this Friday, but no solo visitors will be allowed. Instead, admission will be restricted to groups of two or more.
In January, the attraction closed indefinitely after a man jumped to his death, marking the third death by suicide at the location in less than a year.
Tourists come to the Vessel at the Hudson Yards to climb the spiral staircase that promises different angles, heights and views of the city, according to the Hudson Yards website. The staircase has about 2,500 individual steps in 154 flights of stairs.
