2 of 10: That is, she can after you unblock her line-of-sight with the zombies a bit.
3 of 10: You see those sheets of metal lying on the rooftop?
4 of 10: Many of them can be picked up with the gravity gun and thrown aside.
5 of 10: Do so in order to allow Alyx to see and snipe more zombies.
6 of 10: Most of the open roof sections are covered by fencing, but two of them aren't, so be careful to not fall down into the building as you're going around removing metal sheets.

8 of 10: A whole lot of zombies will appear after you drop down, and they'll knock out your platform's wooden supports before long.
