I drove past many apartment buildings in boro park today that people built sukkahs on their porch,directly under under a porch from the floor above. Isn't that considered as if it's blocked directly from the sky, like the same way you're not allowed to have the sukkah under a tree? Also many sukkahs were under awnings.

We have an awning, you roll it up while eating it’s to protect it from rain. Also the ones under other porches usually have a tiny price not under and that’s where the man sits since he is the one who is required to eat in the sukkah.

We have an awning on top of our poor that doesn't roll up. I wish it did...

The awnings are to protect from the weather, and get drawn back when the sukkah is in use.
I don't know about the architecture there, but in Jerusalem there are many buildings where the balcony is partly underneath the one above and has part sticking out, exposed to the sky. People build a dukkah over the whole thing, but they know which part is kosher. The men sit in the kosher part, and the women sit at the same table, but not in a kosher sukkah.

You can't always tell from the angle. My husband has paskened on different sukkos and when I question a picture I see, he says there's no way to tell like that due to the angle.
Kind of like those pictures we saw during covid that didn't look like social distancing were taking place...
So looking up from the street wouldn't really tell you until you're in the sukkah and even then it's hard to get a good view sometimes depending on the height of what is on top.

Sometimes there is a few feet not covered but they close the entire porch for privacy. But know to be on a kosher succah they have to sit against one wall on the porch that isn’t covered.
