Summer Entertaining: Pool Party Planning Guide

Rooftop pool glowing at sunset before an evening gathering

Golden hour, warm water, your favorite people. The pool deck hosts the summer’s best evenings — here is how residents plan parties the whole building talks about (fondly).

Reserve Early, Invite Warmly

Cabanas open for booking 30 days out and July Saturdays go first. Each residence may bring up to four guests; larger groups can reserve the event corner through the portal. Send invites two weeks ahead with the building’s guest-parking instructions attached.

Feed People Simply

The grill stations handle the mains — skewers, burgers, corn — while the event lounge’s prep kitchen covers the rest. Glass stays off the deck (the building provides shatterproof sets), and the concierge’s preferred caterers know the service elevator drill by heart.

Mind the Clock, Keep the Glow

Amplified music winds down at 9PM; after that, the string lights and conversation carry the night. Lifeguard hours, towel service times, and cleanup checklists are posted at the deck entrance and in every booking confirmation.
