Rooftop Gardens: The Terraces, Conservatories, and Balconies of New York
Idyllic urban oases offer inspiration to anyone yearning to add nature and serenity to an outdoor living space. Rooftop Gardens showcases some of the most unique and extraordinary outdoor spaces in New York City that urban dwellers have created as retreats from the daily chaos of life. A sumptuous array of gardens ranging in style from working to exotic fills the pages, a diverse selection befitting different scales and changing seasons. From the lush produce garden of Eli’s Vinegar Factory to a glass-enclosed conservatory perched atop Park Avenue in which amaryllis, paperwhite narcissus, and cyclamen grow during the winter months, this stunning portfolio illustrates innovative and original ways to design one’s own outdoor sanctuary—be it sky-high or ground level—and is a must-have for homeowners, decorators, and landscape architects alike.
The architectural brilliance of Rooftop Gardens: The Terraces, Conservatories, and Balconies of New York resides in its meticulously crafted prose. Denise LeFrak Calicchio has delivered a manuscript that transcends its genre, offering a profound reflection on the human condition that lingers long after the final page is turned.
