DETAILS
Located on a penthouse located on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the terrace offers stunning panoramic views of Midtown, Central Park, Broadway, the East River, and the Hudson River. The design takes advantage of this prime location with glass parapets and low planters for unhindered views.
Cantilevered ten feet above the deck is the main feature of the terrace: a green wall cladding the interior of the building’s parapet, framing panoramic views of the city. Custom-designed stainless steel sculptural panels integral to the planted wall add playful interest to the planting area. The large glass apartment façade is clad above with translucent resin panels to emphasize the architectural glass. An adaptable lighting design can be used to subtly light dinner parties and intimate gatherings or outdoor reading.
