10 incredible NYC apartments with green space and terraces

New Yorkers have learned the importance of having access to the great outdoors these past three months.

Staying inside has proven difficult, especially for those who don’t have a balcony or garden to get some fresh air while the city has been largely shutdown.

It’s no secret that apartments and homes with private access, whether it be a terrace, a yard, a garden or a rooftop, will be at the top of New Yorkers’ minds as they search for a new home this year.

In May, having private outdoor space was included in 80 percent more searches than at this same time last year and up 38 percent from before Covid-19 was first reported in the city, according to StreetEasy. Last May, outdoor space was not even among the top five most-searched amenities on StreetEasy. This year, it made the list at number five, with 20 percent of searches including outdoor space when specifying amenities.
