The original floor plan was very simple.The living room was in the front of the house, with windows looking out towards the street.You also had two bedrooms, um, a bathroom, and a kitchen.Everything was on one floor.

请问老师，如何理解短语look out toward? 以及这里的现在分词属于那种用法？

类似的句子，He talked to me with his legs shaking. 这里with之后有宾语his legs, shaking为其宾语补语，shake是不及物动词，shake(发抖）。为什么用现在分词，我的理解是：这里的legs和shake为主动关系，legs是shake这个动作的发出体。

如果looking out towards翻译成朝向，面向的话，这个问题就很简单了。但是没有找到相关字典有这个解释。
