a few square feet of outside you paid for like it was a continent
means A platform projecting from the wall of a building, enclosed by a railing and accessible from an upper-floor door or window.
from From the Italian 'balcone,' meaning a large window or scaffold, which traces back to 'balco,' a beam or platform — a word Italian likely borrowed from a Germanic root for 'beam' or 'balk,' a cousin of the English 'balk' (a ridge or wooden beam). So the airy little perch is, at heart, just a fancy plank sticking out — the bones of a building stretched into a view.
