Condo/Multi-Unit Roof Decks
Shared rooftop spaces for buildings
Shared Rooftop Living Spaces
A rooftop deck transforms unused roof space into a building-wide amenity that every resident can enjoy—the equivalent of a backyard for urban living. In Chicago's competitive condo market, shared rooftop spaces with skyline views, grilling stations, and lounge areas add measurable value to units and make buildings more attractive to buyers and renters alike.
Building a shared deck on a multi-unit building requires navigating Chicago's specific requirements: 100 PSF structural loads for common areas, dual exit access, fire-rated construction, and association approval documentation. We coordinate with condo boards from concept through completion, managing resident communications and scheduling construction to minimize disruption to building operations.
The result is a professionally designed common area built to code and engineered for Chicago weather—a space where neighbors become a community. From intimate seating areas to full outdoor kitchens and fire features, we create rooftop destinations that justify the investment and keep residents from needing to leave home for a great outdoor experience.
