Vetrina's Vista Pergolas Transform a Residential Rooftop
PROJECT SCOPE
Type: Multifamily/Mixed Use
Location: 1701 Market St, Philadelphia, PA 19103
Construction: 2025
Area of Focus: Rooftop
Systems Utilized: Vista Pergola
Commercial rooftops, terraces, and courtyards have evolved into sought-after amenities for luxury residences, hotels, and office buildings. Today’s tenants and guests expect more than just an outdoor space - they seek a sophisticated, comfortable, and functional environment. That’s precisely where motorized aluminum pergolas make the difference.
Recently, our labor team completed the installation of seven Vista pergolas manufactured by Vetrina Windows in our factory in Bensalem, PA. They were added to the rooftop of a luxury apartment building in the center city Philadelphia, PA. The result is a rooftop oasis that seamlessly combines architectural elegance with advanced weather-responsive technology. The pergolas ranged in size from 14 ft x 11 ft to 18 ft x 15 ft, providing tailored coverage for dining areas, lounge seating, and poolside relaxation zones. This flexibility allows architects and property owners to design spaces that maximize functionality while preserving aesthetics.
Crafted from durable aluminum, these pergolas are built to withstand the elements while requiring minimal maintenance. Their sleek, modern design complements both contemporary and classic architecture, making them a versatile solution for any commercial project.
Key Advantages for Commercial Spaces
Year-Round Usability – Weather sensors adapt to the environment for uninterrupted use.
Tenant Attraction & Retention – Enhanced amenities increase property value and appeal.
Low Maintenance – Aluminum structure resists rust, wear, and fading.
Modern Aesthetic – Clean lines and integrated lighting elevate the look of any outdoor area.
Vetrina's Vista pergolas are equipped with rain, wind, and temperature sensors that allow the slats to automatically adjust depending on weather conditions. Tenants can enjoy the outdoors without worrying about sudden showers, strong winds, or intense sunlight. With the touch of a handheld remote - or through automation - the rooftop transforms instantly, ensuring maximum comfort at all times.
Each pergola is outfitted with integrated LED lighting, creating an inviting atmosphere after sunset. Whether it’s for evening lounging, dining, or entertaining, the space maintains its charm well into the night, elevating the overall resident experience. Adding motorized pergolas is more than an upgrade - it’s a smart investment. They help property owners differentiate their buildings in competitive markets, while architects gain a dynamic design element that enhances both form and function.
