Expert Opinion

while these living level terraces offer a rare "access from everywhere" connectivity, their narrow proportions make them largely impractical for actual use. you’re essentially buying a series of spectacular viewing galleries. the park avenue vistas are truly elite, even if the "outdoor living" is restricted to standing room only.

this expansive fifth avenue terrace offers an exceptional footprint with a seamless interior flow through three sets of french doors. the established, mature vegetation creates an immediate sense of privacy and a lush, garden-like atmosphere. coupled with the spectacular, open city views, this is a rare and highly-refined outdoor asset that feels remarkably airy.

large outdoors located in three disconnected spaces, the views make it a potential canvas for something spectacular. although proximity to a cooling tower is potentially troubling for noise.

Expert Opinion:
a good thing about these low floor terraces is that they are very well protected from the wind, especially with a privacy fence like this, the only downside is if it comes at the cost of great views. if vegetation on and off to terrace will give it a very backyard feel in the summer.

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.

Expert Opinion:
each of the two roof spaces are sizable enough to function as a terrace, but the fact they are currently completely disconnected from one another will make at least one of them obsolete.
