I'm restoring a late 1800's brownstone in an historic area of Brooklyn (non-landmark status). I'm doing a roof tear off (many layers of black tar) and installing a torch-down rubberized, flat roof. I'd like to build a deck on top.

Problem is: I can put a spiral staircase leading up to the roof. However, what method of access can I employ without building a sheltering structure to house the landing?

I've thought about using an "Egress Skylight" but all say that the hardware is not meant for regular use. Any thoughts???

Thanks,

David
