The Piazza Terminal is a luxury apartment community with amenities that include pool clubs, an indoor fitness facility, saunas, and a rooftop terrace. To extend that holistic lifestyle outdoors, the property wanted a genuine outdoor gym on an exposed sky-terrace — which meant equipment that could deliver real workouts while standing up to high winds and Philadelphia’s four seasons.

The Solution: Real Outdoor Training on an Exposed Sky-Terrace
The Piazza’s decision to include an outdoor gym on its terrace adjacent to the indoor gym is an example of its commitment to providing residents with the amenities to live a holistic lifestyle. The outdoor fitness equipment the Piazza chose is also state of the art and provides residents with real outdoor exercise. They decided on the Everest Cardio Climber, Versa Hi-Lo Pulley System, Titan Multigym, and Helios Multigym. The equipment is situated on a large uncovered terrace in the sky with magnificent city views. Every unit is weatherproof and built to withstand high winds and seasonal extremes with minimal maintenance, so the amenity stays presentable and functional year-round.
