As a lot of the building's glamour shines from the exterior, we will be looking at the building from the outside. The best way to do so is to be on the bridge connecting the IFC mall to the piers. Facing the observation wheel, you will see the bridge on your right. There are escalators or elevators going up from Pier 8 and Pier 7. After you arrive at the bridge, the IFC towers are the two tallest skyscrapers in view. You can go back into the IFC mall from the same bridge by walking toward Central direction, and an entrance will be seen on your right.
