although balcony like in dimensions, it is much more usable than a balcony as the building wall to the west will protect you from wind. the low parapet wall also makes a perfect place for planters, giving it a much warmer feel.

those mature trees framing the view are doing serious work, turning what could feel like a midtown fishbowl into something closer to a private garden room. thirteen feet of width accommodates real furniture, real conversation, real afternoon lemonade without anyone sitting in anyone's lap. a direct living terrace with 900 square feet, city and park views threading through the greenery, and neighbors who apparently have better things to do than watch you. the plantings took years; you get them on day one.

Expert Opinion:
sixteen feet of width on a direct living terrace is the real thing, and this one knows it. the pergola with climbing vines frames a hudson sunset view that practically stages itself. seating for eight, room to circulate, water views from the sofa. some neighbor sightlines, but the social payoff outweighs the exposure.

Expert Opinion:
it only 3.9 feet wide. these terraces are too small for anything but stargazing cigar, smoking and cappuccino drinking . but views are decent enough to make those regular occurrences.

Expert Opinion:
ninety-four square feet with nine feet of width puts you solidly in entertaining territory, and the direct living connection means the coffee table is functionally six steps from fresh air. good views, decent privacy, enough sun to justify the lounge chairs. a proper outdoor room that happens to be outside.

Expert Opinion:
seventeen hundred square feet of direct living terrace with mature plantings that took someone a decade to grow. dining for eight under the umbrellas, a separate lounge area, and still room to pace while on a call. north and south exposure keeps it lit without baking. the neighbors have no idea you exist up here.

this nearly complete wrap around terrace has several useful areas, each of them perfectly curated to connect with he interior. once the vegetation is more mature, it will be perfect.
