this photo shows interior rooms, not the terrace itself, which tells you something about marketing priorities. ten feet of width on a direct living setup is solidly usable, enough for a proper table and a few guests who actually like each other. three hundred square feet with city views north and west, some neighbor sightlines to navigate. coffee for one works fine; dinner for six requires strategic seating arrangements and a tolerance for being observed.

blurring the lines between a loggia and a terrace, these outdoor spaces have the benefit of protection from the rain, but the heavy columns rob it that feeling of open sky views.

this terrace has the dimensions and access to make it spectacular, but the unknown is the views.

decent sized terrace, just big enough for dining or lounging, but not both

fantastic terrace in terms of size, the layout is not ideal unless you are an avid swimmer, as the best space of the terrace is exclusively for the pool. privacy is also currently an issue but that can be remedied bu planing a row of pine hedges.

despite being too narrow to have entertainment value, and lack some views straight out the back, this is a nice respite with its "manmade canyon views" to the east

the terrace has a decent size, but as the virtual image suggests, something needs to be done to block the views of the unimproved building roof.

large space, but most of it is unimproved... the biggest unknown is how the nearby mechanicals may affect the noise level on this terrace.

two terraces,, each of them has the width to be very practical, and each of them has water views, make his a very unique property.

this terrace offers an entire outdoor living experience, proving the versatility of direct roof terraces. the fireplace, spa, and kitchen are fantastic, but the large tv., and wc ensure you can stay there for hours.

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.
