I have access to a small finished rooftop and i want to see if you can think of any use for it. It's hard to get to because you have to go out a window then up a fire escape. And there's a couple of nice places to sit right outside my building, so i never wind up going to the roof.

I considered growing vegetables up there but it's hard enough to access that that probably wouldn't be enough to draw me up there and they'd probably just die of neglect.

It's about 8 x 10 feet, and a pain to get to.

Can you think of anything worth doing with it?

EDIT:

I can't permanently change anything to it, like installing a major solar construction.

Plug-in solar panels may be an option, depending on your specific locality. Those don't require the hefty permanent installation of typical rooftop solar.
