Expert Opinion:
it only 3.9 feet wide. these terraces are too small for anything but stargazing cigar, smoking and cappuccino drinking . but views are decent enough to make those regular occurrences.

Expert Opinion:
this terrace offers a footprint large enough to be a functional space for entertaining, but the immediate surroundings lack the visual draw to bring friends over. if you intend to use this as a true social hub, some serious work will need to be put in. it is a massive, utilitarian blank canvas that requires significant effort to overcome its sterile atmosphere.

Expert Opinion:
to narrow to have any practical use and the fact the windows are made opaque suggests the view is also not worthy, but that is a missed opportunity as that makes it perfect for planting to control your views
