Expert Opinion:
this well sized private roof is under appreciated and completely undeveloped, with some planning it could be a nice place with great views, although its overexposure will need to be dealt with. and access is a nightmare.

Expert Opinion:
west-facing with nearly eleven feet of width, which lands firmly in usable territory. the sectional actually fits without apology, and there is room to walk past it. city views in every direction, good light in the afternoon, neighbors apparently minding their own business. a direct living terrace that functions like one should.

Expert Opinion:
being in the middle of all the skyscrapers means that the view is limited, but that restriction does not affect your enjoyment, as this is still a nice terrace with room for most uses.

$1,495,000
Expert Opinion:
four feet of depth is the polite way of saying bistro seating only, and the photo confirms it. a small table, two chairs, one potted plant, and the conversation stops there. what saves this direct living terrace is the view south to billionaires' row, which does most of the heavy lifting. morning coffee with the supertalls, evening drinks with the same. good privacy, decent light, and enough space for exactly two people who like each other.

Expert Opinion:
long and narrow at seven feet wide, this living level terrace runs along the east river with the queensboro bridge anchoring the view. the proportions limit furniture options, but someone's already figured it out with a compact seating area tucked against the brick. water views, morning coffee, one friend at a time.
