The overhang is popular in New York where you can sell air space above a building.
I wonder if the overhang allows for windows on Granville? If the building were to go straight up from Merrill then it would be considered to be at the property line and the fire code may not permit windows at that location. This may be why there are no windows overlooking the rooftop garden.
