Your Rooftop,
Reimagined.
New York Roofscapes designs and builds bespoke rooftop decks, gardens, and outdoor living spaces for discerning clients across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Greater New York area.
What We Build
Crafted for Life
Above the City
Landscape Architecture
Comprehensive design services from concept to completion. We work with licensed landscape architects to create rooftop environments that are both beautiful and structurally sound.
Rooftop Gardens
Lush, thriving gardens above the city skyline. From edible herb gardens to ornamental plantings, we select species that flourish in NYC's unique rooftop microclimate.
Pergolas & Shading
Custom-crafted cedar and hardwood pergolas with retractable shade canopies, awnings, and privacy screens — shelter without sacrificing the view.
Water Features
Reflecting pools, cascading fountains, and tranquil water walls that transform your rooftop into a private sanctuary above the urban noise.
Outdoor Lighting
Integrated architectural lighting systems — from subtle path lighting to dramatic uplighting — that extend the usability and beauty of your space into the evening.
Irrigation Systems
Smart, automated irrigation designed for rooftop conditions. We engineer systems that keep your plantings healthy while protecting your building's waterproofing.
Pavers & Pedestals
Premium Bison pedestal systems with natural stone, porcelain, and composite pavers. Properly engineered to protect your roof membrane while creating a stunning surface.
Outdoor Kitchens
Full outdoor kitchen buildouts with natural gas grills, stone countertops, sinks, ice makers, and bar seating — designed for serious entertaining above the city.
Integrated Systems
Outdoor showers, railings, fencing, and integrated smart-home systems that bring every comfort of indoor living to your rooftop retreat.
