They couldn't have done, as I went up around '98. The security was pretty heavy, though - searches etc. Went up on my own, as Mrs H had discovered a shopping mall in the basement of one of the buildings and preferred some retail therapy to going up another tall building (we'd been up the Empire State a couple of days before). Stood at the top and watched the sun set over New York. What struck me was how quiet it was, as it was too high to hear the traffic noise down below.
