Expert Opinion:
although the quality of the craftsmanship is not very high. some effort was put in to make this terrace enjoyable, with a pergola providing a beautiful spot to sit and taking in dramatic views.

$10,500,000
Expert Opinion:
nine feet of width puts this direct living terrace just past the threshold where dinner parties become plausible, and someone clearly took the hint. mature hedging runs the length, creating a green wall that earns its keep against the central park canopy beyond. west-facing with those skyline views means late afternoon light and the kind of sunset cocktails that make neighbors resentful.

Expert Opinion:
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.
