What tenants can do on their balconies

Tenants can generally attach privacy screens to their balconies up to railing height if they don't significantly alter the building's appearance. Permanent attachments or those damaging the building require landlord consent. Lights are permitted if they don't harm the building's structure or disturb neighbors after 10 PM. Fixed awnings and satellite dishes require landlord approval, though tenants may have rights to them under specific circumstances. Hanging flags is usually allowed unless prohibited by the lease, but modifications to the building's structure for mounting need permission. Drying laundry on the balcony is generally acceptable.
