I imagine the shade it provides helps tremendously in an apartment as well.

Most buildings have AC units all over the place. I keep ours on here year-round. Can't take the heat any more. Woe is me!
Yes, William - the buildings were built tall and close together to create more airflow as well as to provide shade too, just like the rawasheen window coverings.
