the location of these two terraces make them an excellent continuation of the living spaces and offer this home the excellent indoor-outdoor flow that many buyers look for.

this terrace has the most desired access, views and dimensions of any terrace type.

too narrow to have any social use.

the only drawback to this utterly charming terrace is that it is only accessible through the bedroom, and possibly its proximity to the brooklyn bridge which is at the same elevation here.

west-facing, water views, sunset doing exactly what it should. the photo tells a prettier story than the five-foot width suggests, which means someone staged it well. a direct living terrace this narrow is cocktails for two, not dinner for six. the sectional looks comfortable; just don't try walking past it.

lovely place to relax and soak up the view, without the glare of windows. at only 5 ft wide, it can handle some chairs and a bistro table, so you can play backgammon as well.

that high parapet wall creates a private pocket in the middle of midtown, which is not nothing. a direct living terrace at four and a half feet wide means you are choosing between the lounge chair and the side table, not arranging both. two people can sit here comfortably; three becomes a negotiation. morning coffee territory, not dinner party material.

virtually staged, but the bones tell the real story. a direct living terrace with proper entertaining width, hedged perimeter providing some buffer from the neighboring glass towers watching. one world trade peeking through gives you something to point at during dinner parties. the fire pit is digital fiction for now, but a gas line could make it real.

located in a cutaway in the building this terrace has shading from two floors higher. the views are great and varied with both river and amazing skyline views.

widows peak like terrace

that reflecting pool is doing a lot of work, visually and spatially. eighteen hundred square feet on paper, but the water feature and hidden storage claim nearly half. what remains is a polished direct living terrace with mature grasses, downtown skyline views, and room for four people who already like each other.
