Rooftop amenities are expensive, complex, and subject to both building code and engineering constraints, not to mention the high stakes involved with doing rooftop amenities right: a developer’s reputation, the profitability of their project, and their relationships with investors, city officials, and community members. High complexity and higher stakesĭespite the demand for such amenities, it’s not easy to recreate quality outdoor environments on the top of urban buildings. At Loft Six Four, we capitalize on every square foot of rooftop space to create immersive outdoor living experiences. However, if you look up, thousands of empty rooftops provide a blank canvas.
The higher land cost often dictates a need for the building footprint to extend to the property line, leaving little to no room for outdoor amenities at street level. This scarcity drives urban apartment developers to want to build private outdoor amenities that increase the livability and marketability of their properties. There is a shortage of publicly accessible outdoor space in virtually every city in the United States. Improved livability, improved marketability Nate Jaramillo from Loft Six Four shows us how to communicate the value of rooftop amenities to clients and the top ways to design for these specialized spaces.
