Skywatch Friday


Some people think that these water towers
are no longer in use—not so! Found some info,
and—go figure—the one they picture is the same
one I shot! BTW, the silver-and-blue building
on the left is used as NYU housing (daughter
Lila lived there for part of her sophomore year).
Imagine a dorm room (more like a studio
apartment) that's this close to the
Brooklyn Bridge!

water towers



I've shown them before, but I'd recognize a
NYC skyline in a . . . NY minute—if it included
these things.  Love the juxtaposition between
a beautiful building and its homely water tower
up on top.  Just another layer, because you
hardly notice them from street level.

SOHO skyline



And how many water towers can you count?
