MLK Highline

This rooftop terrace is a well-designed outdoor amenity space that combines open-air and semi-covered areas to create a versatile, social environment. The terrace is finished with large-format light gray porcelain tiles throughout, providing a clean, contemporary foundation that extends across the entirety of the space. A prominent louvered pergola serves as the architectural centerpiece, constructed from steel posts in a dark charcoal finish with adjustable slatted roofing panels. String lights are strung beneath the pergola structure, adding an ambient quality suited for evening use. The pergola spans a generous portion of the terrace, sheltering multiple seating arrangements that include round white dining tables paired with wire-frame chairs, as well as woven rattan lounge furniture accented with orange cushions positioned on artificial turf zones. The perimeter of the terrace features horizontal wood-tone cladding, which adds warmth against the industrial metal framework. Access to and from an adjacent interior space is provided through multiple dark-framed glass entry doors and windows, allowing visual connectivity between indoors and outdoors. A low wood-paneled parapet wall runs along the outer edge of the rooftop, complementing the skyline views visible beyond. The city skyline is visible in the distance, offering a compelling backdrop to the entire terrace.
