WASHINGTON — Want to make your selfie game stronger?

The new Observation Deck at CEB Tower opens on Thursday and offers views from the highest public point in the D.C. area.

While the Washington Monument is taller, it is currently closed to the public.

Named after its primary tenant, the Corporate Executive Board, the spectacle is on the 31st floor of the tallest building inside the Beltway and has 360-degree views of D.C., Maryland and Virginia from its floor to ceiling windows.

There is also an outdoor terrace and a cafe for visitors.

Adult tickets for the tower are $21 when purchased online and $22 on-site. There are discounts for youth, students, military and seniors.
