Can somebody translate "automated push-out windows" and "augmented by a unique 15’0” x 3’0” fritted glass room extension" for me?
WTF are they talking about?
"The Great Room provides wide-open space extending the entire width of 57 Irving’s eastern façade overlooking Irving Place. Approximately fifty feet of linear floor-to-ceiling glass with nearly ten-feet tall automated push-out windows are augmented by a unique 15’0” x 3’0” fritted glass room extension which allows additional space, privacy, and filtered natural light."
if you click on the building "overview" and look at the overall building structure, you'll see that the building face is not flat.
It looks like the sections with glass or windows is recessed 3 feet.
I'm guessing you can hit a button the windows will extend out and act like a fishtank.
Probably inspired by the popemobile?
The pop-out windows look kind of cool, especially if they are push-button operated. Doesn't look good for cat owners though. I have cats but hate them, so it may work well for me.
I still don't understand the "fritted glass", it looks opaque on the outside pictures, but clear on the inside pictures? Can it be both?

never mind, it's not even that intriguing, click on the Section of "the Building" "architecture" and go to the second pic
Thanks, that partially explains it.
