Hotels are transitory — no one lives there, yet everyone leaves a trace. The rooftop is a threshold: above the lobby’s performance of politeness, above the guest rooms’ private griefs. On the hotel top, you are between earth and sky, between being a guest and being a ghost. It is where lovers meet, where suicides are contemplated, where musicians play one last song. For Sonya Blaze, the hotel top is a stage the size of a helicopter pad. From there, she can see the city’s grid — and for a moment, she is its center.
