The windows are ugly, how do you clean them from the outside. Windows flying out into mid air really make the facade of the building look really sloppy looking.
I much prefer double hung tilt in windows with screens, easy to clean, easy to operate.
They worked for decades, and still work. Plus they look neat.
OK, I am a window freak,,,,,,,
they catch a breeze much better than double hung/hanged/hunged/hangered/hungry – I always wanted those since I face east and the winds tend to go north/south
I like em too, but the child safety bars for them suck. Ours are installed incorrectly, I think and no one else in our building even bothered.
AngelCare Guard Bars are the ones you are supposed to get. I think. They are not cheap.
THis must have central air as you cant put in a window unit and there are no wall sleeves.
I think they look great when open.
sxm (3:55 p.m.) – just came here to post samo; looks like a shoe-in for awkward-post-of-the-day.
They look like sh*t when open. That’s the problem with a facade of casement windows.
That seam down the middle of the brick is pretty unfortunate.
mr b, i’m sure those are double panes
