This rooftop amenity level offers a well-appointed outdoor experience high above the surrounding cityscape. The open-air terrace is finished with large-format stone tiles and features an array of seating configurations, including modular lounge suites with navy cushions, dining tables with contemporary woven chairs, and sun loungers arranged along the perimeter. Wooden pergolas punctuate the space, providing defined gathering zones and partial shade across the terrace. Potted greenery and flowering plants add natural color throughout. A full-size swimming pool is positioned along one side of the rooftop, enclosed by expansive floor-to-ceiling glass walls and doors that allow abundant natural light to fill the interior pool area while maintaining unobstructed views of the skyline beyond. The pool deck extends outward, connecting seamlessly to the open terrace. Sturdy metal railings line the edges of the terrace, ensuring safety while preserving panoramic views of the urban skyline, which includes prominent high-rise towers and extends toward the horizon. The brick building exterior adds an architectural warmth that contrasts with the sleek tile finishes underfoot. Whether used for social gatherings, leisure, or exercise, this rooftop amenity space delivers a versatile and visually striking environment elevated above the city.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
