a direct living setup at a workable width, furnished just right for two with city views toward the supertalls. that neighboring brick building sits close enough to share a wave, so this is more morning coffee territory than clothing-optional sunbathing. comfortable for a quiet drink, cozy for a party.

lovely terrace, with excellent skyling views and excellent proportions it also has some architectural detailing on the building and the corners to make it very unique.

very cute wraparound terrace, maybe slightly wider than most terraces of this type, but still too narrow for much more than a bistro table.

currently mostly raw space, with decent views, and little in the way of obstructions.

private direct roof access with 30 feet of width, which is dinner party territory. the mature plantings and weathered deck have that lived-in quality you cannot buy new. exposed to neighbors, yes, but the empire state peeking through softens that concern. remarkably quiet up here, somehow.

while the primary bedroom outdoor space is just a narrow balcony, the direct living terrace is just large enough for a small dining table along a seating area. by splitting the square footage, neither area achieves the scale necessary for true entertaining, resulting in high-altitude utility rather than luxury.
