Comment on Why do residential skyscrapers always seem to include balconies that never get used?

  I don’t sit on my balcony despite the table and chairs I have out there, but I have lots of plants that soften the view and spark joy.

  I wanted a balcony but the real estate agent politely implied that I couldn’t afford one in the area where I was looking for housing. With that said, I can see myself using it for just an hour or two a week while the weather is nice. I like the idea of sitting out on the balcony but in practice it’s noisy out there and boring to do on my own.

  Me too. I have an outstanding rocking chair out there for reading. We also have a tiny table between two chairs, perfect for drinks.
