Family activities and entertaining take place regularly in this rooftop 'room.'  Originally completely exposed to neighboring high-rise buildings, it offered minimal privacy. An arbor provides both shade and privacy from above, while newly-created walls create more privacy, protection, and greening opportunities. Lattice-grids covered with ivy create a pleasant view in all directions. Plantings include a combination of permanent shrubs, trees, and dwarf conifers, as well as a colorful mix of annuals and vegetables.
