this terrace has the layout to make it a great space for entertaining. however the current owners underutilized it.

stunning terrace with the dimensions to host fantastic gatherings. and the direct kitchen access even helps with the catering of such events.

the only disappointing thing about these lovely proportioned terraces are their views.

these terraces are all about soaking up the views of central park and midtown.

direct living with fourteen and a half feet of width, which means the dining table and the lounge seating actually coexist without a turf war. the planters are in, the furniture works, and you can see into adjacent buildings about as well as they can see into you. a proper outdoor room for six, maybe eight if everyone likes each other.

mature hedging already at chest height, a sectional that seats six comfortably, and prewar brick towers framing the sightlines instead of blocking them. twelve feet of width on a direct living terrace is the threshold for actual entertaining, and someone clearly understood the assignment. the plantings soften what could feel exposed; the neighbors appear to mind their own business.

triplex apartment with excellently useable terraces on each floor, making it rare in nyc. the one imperfection is the lack of views or ambiance.

amazing river views..but this high up can get very windy....

the variety of the terrace spaces make this home unique, with both direct living terraces each spacious enough for dining or lounging. but the direct roof terrace has the summer kitchen

twenty feet wide, over two thousand square feet, a pergola dripping with mature bougainvillea, and a fireplace for when the october evenings turn. this direct living terrace seats twelve for dinner without anyone bumping chairs. the glass railing preserves the skyline view while the planted border softens the urban edge. most terraces promise entertaining; this one actually delivers it.

too many terraces to keep track of (7) making the outdoor accessible from every major room. but the direct living terrace is the one that all terraces in manhattan will be measured against.
