very cool space, and the reflecting pool certainly is a unique feature, but together with the hidden storage spaces it takes up half the terrace, leaving you with an elegant space to sit, but not a lot of space to entertain

21 South End Ave #PH1A
$2,230,000
Expert Opinion:
this direct living terrace offers the rare combination of functional scale and a high-impact harbor vista. the proportions are genuinely practical for seamless indoor-outdoor hosting, while the unobstructed water views provide a significant, permanent value driver that elevates the space from a simple amenity to a primary attraction.

Expert Opinion:
the numbers suggest a better terrace than the reality, as it is too small in most areas.

Expert Opinion:
with wind protection on three sides. this terrace is very usable, however the protection comes at a cost, there is no outstanding vie to enjoy.

$2,950,000
Expert Opinion:
this terrace has a practical layout and dimensions. however, the metal railing robs the place of any intimacy while leaving you somewhat overexposed. the only way to remedy that is by using copious vegetation.

Expert Opinion:
the views from this low-key, low-floor terrace are of old soho, the way it was years ago, not of the open air mall it has become.

Expert Opinion:
20 ft wide is plenty for even large scale entertaining, and it can easily become a de-facto living room when the weather allows

this terrace has the access, size and views that make it extremely desirable,,, the one drawback is that at this elevation, wind can really affect the usability.

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.

Midtown West
33 West 56 #PHC
$7,000,000
Expert Opinion:
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.
