No, the pavement was built out into the road as a convenience to those who are altitudinally-privileged. Small people should still be able to use the sidewalk beneath the balcony: except that the greedy, wealthy lady who owns the balcony doesn't want to risk them taking a peek up her designer skirt and enjoying the view while she enjoys HER view out the window.
 
It's true, they have widened the sidewalk. I was going to ask why put warning poles after the fact. Was it designed like that? Does the whole thing lower on to the pavement, or elsewise access to the building via that extrusion was intended? Is that a white ramp on the wall?

'At thar would be a "Corvuck" (redneck) ..... it's for the roofer that won't buy a truck and insists on keeping his "Vette".
 
That's not asking but begging for an accident. Laying the refrigerator / freezer horizontal and letting it rest 24 hours vertical before restoring power seems a better scenario than risking loss of appliance and or friends.

I'll agree with your thought on that. I've always recommended leaving it upright at least 48 hours.
