It's a must. Anyone who stops in the Big Apple will want to recreate the mythical Lunch at the Top of a Skyscraper, captured in 1932 by photographer Charles Clyde Ebbets. Perched on scaffolding during the construction of Rockefeller Center, eleven workers revel in the view of Manhattan, sitting on a beam above the void. Since the worldwide success of this photograph, the illustrious building has offered its visitors the opportunity to re-enact this incredible scene by immortalizing themselves, too, with their feet in the void, at the top of the skyscraper. While in New York with his 12-year-old daughter Harper, David Beckham took part in the tourist attraction. On Friday, December 15, the 46-year-old former footballer shared a series of images on Instagram, showing himself to be as complicit as ever with the youngest of the clan.

A father and his children
Dressed in jeans, a down jacket and a scarf, the duo is shown in the middle of the glass towers of the Big Apple, sitting on a huge crane overlooking the city. "A few fun days in New York," Victoria Beckham's husband wrote, followed by a hashtag with his daughter's name. Once back down, it seems that the duo set out to conquer the cafes and restaurants of New York, as other photographs reveal.
And Harper wasn't the only one who took advantage of the trip across the Atlantic. Indeed, the father of the family was also accompanied by his 18-year-old son Cruz, as revealed by another publication posted in the aftermath. But this time, exit Rockefeller Center, it's in a pizzeria that father and son stopped for lunch.
"We love each other"
The football professional shares 4 children with Victoria Beckham: Harper, 12, Cruz, 18, Brooklyn, 24, and Romeo, 21. The couple tied the knot in July 1999 before renewing their vows in 2017. That same year, on the BBC's "Desert Island Discs" radio show, David Beckham said: "We know each other better than anyone else. (...) We stay together because we love each other and because we have four amazing children."
