In case you want to see a really nice rooftop garden

Came across an article on the Remodelista website from the weekend ... in which two architects/designers discussed creating an East Village rooftop garden... The two "were tasked with maximizing the panoramic views while maintaining a sense of privacy, which they achieved via strategically placed walls, canvas screens, and plantings."

Speaking of privacy... There's an outdoor shower (photo below) ... per the article: "While the outdoor shower was designed for privacy, there is a view of the Empire State building from the small rectangular opening."

Forgot to go look where this is... maybe 11th Street just west of Avenue A?
