this living level terrace might not have a view in a traditional sense, but peeking up an alley with fire escapes has its own new york charm

Expert Opinion:
living level with 18 feet of width and central park filling the frame, which is the arrangement everyone pictures when they say "terrace apartment." three separate outdoor spaces here, and this one does the heavy lifting. some neighbor sightlines exist, but at this height, who's really watching. no landscaping yet, just potential and good bones.

the direct living terrace in this home is almost useless beyond framing your views with plants, but that is ok, as the direct roof terrace is very spacious and practical
