Should co-ops with rooftop viewing parties refrain from serving alcoholic beverages for liability reasons?
Join the Conversation Comments (2)I have to wonder if an intoxicated guest falling over the edge at a rooftop viewing party has ever happened in the history of New York. I couldn't find anything in the complete NY Times archive. That said, knowing one's insurance liability is a good idea.
The party hosts could be responsible if liquor is illegally provided and someone gets into an accident dwi. There is liability and you need a permit.
Be certain that you have the proper liquor license or permit if the liquor is being sold. This is a 'biggie"

I would say, *ABSOLUTELY!*
But don't take my word for it. Ask your insurance carrier and/or attorney what risks and liabilities you incur (financial and otherwise) if an intoxicated guest goes over the edge.
