As the crisp winter air settles over New York City, the rooftop season doesn’t have to fade into hibernation. Instead of trading skyline views for cozy couches indoors, imagine stepping into a warm, glass-enclosed lounge where you’re still perched above the city’s glittering lights. The publication 6sqft recently spotlighted this exact shift in their piece “The 20 Best Heated and Indoor Rooftops to Enjoy in NYC This Winter”, featuring several venues equipped with Roll‑A‑Cover-style retractable enclosures that let you soak in the view regardless of weather. Whether you’re after a romantic date night, a girls’ night out, or a solo cocktail-and-view moment, these spots deliver the magic of rooftop living and the comfort of winter-ready design. Check out the Roll-A-Cover retractable rooftop enclosures featured in the article below.
