ROOFTOP AMENITY SPACE

Description: Historically, rooftops were a place rarely thought about, visited, or utilized by building owners and their tenants. However, with the scarcity and extremely high cost of land in urban environments, building owners and designers have begun to recognize this once overlooked space. Over the last several decades, rooftop amenity space designs have been on the rise due to their ability to maximize useable space while staying within the building’s footprint.
