a second level terrace with 259 square feet sounds generous until you notice the five foot width. that is bistro territory, not entertaining territory. the caution tape in the photo suggests someone agrees. views toward midtown are solid, privacy is real, but two chairs and a coffee is the ceiling here.

Expert Opinion:
small private terrace tucked into the corner of the building. it has great privacy and quiet, at the expense of views.

Expert Opinion:
direct living with eleven feet of width, so you can actually arrange furniture like a human being. west-facing loggia setup means afternoon light and some neighbor sightlines, which is the trade for city views at this scale. multiple access points keep traffic flowing. a hundred fifty square feet that functions like more.

Expert Opinion:
a roof access terrace with ten feet of width and city skyline views to the south, staged within an inch of its life. the planter box adds some greenery, the furniture suggests dinner for two is possible. some neighbor sightlines, but nothing that ruins the mood. one hundred fifty square feet used thoughtfully.

the two terraces have excellent dimensions, but the fencing around it will detract from the joy.

Expert Opinion:
a proper loggia setup with that pergola overhead, which means you can actually use this direct living terrace in august without melting. the sectional seating arrangement fits comfortably with room to spare, and that decorative ironwork railing frames city views without blocking them. ceiling fan earns its keep here.
