That deck is too close to the house.

That masonite siding will look like cornbread in few years. How can one inspect the foundation for possible cracks or those god forsaken termite tubes when a deck is that close.

PT wood setting directly on the concrete will eventully rot out and the deck will settle.

If you don't think PT wood will decay, email me your address and I'll send you one of about 100 fence posts I have out back of the barn at my dads place. They are looking for a good home.
