Many new-construction brick buildings with street-facing balconies are very dark inside because the cement or wooden balcony floors cast a heavy shadow into the condo. During my visit to Luxhaven, located at 1733 W Cornelia Ave in Roscoe Village, developer Jody Libman said the answer to that problem was to install a metal grate floor on the balconies, much like a fire escape.
