Rooftop Garden
Rittenhouse Square
(Philadelphia County) PA


Contemporary styling sets the stage for relaxing and socializing on this urban roof deck.

Clean lines and a sweeping curve set this garden apart from its neighbors.

The wide curve encompasses

cabinet, planting box, and display platform and leads the focus away from the square perimeter of the deck. Well-coordinated plantings provide a lush visual treat. Irrigation is built into the deck and planters to minimize maintenance concerns. A sophisticated lighting scheme creates the perfect ambiance for late dining and relaxing.

Urban roofdecks with their inherent constraints -- perched over flat roofs and supported by parallel walls -- can be boxy and boring. By contrast, this rooftop garden in the center of the city is both elegant and modern. The landscape architects have created a special place that reflects the tastes of its owners and provides for better appreciation of their environment.
