{tower of light}

I often vist NYC, but never go into Brooklyn. This may be a perfect reason-- going to see Watertower by artist Tom Fruin. Using locally sourced steel and plexiglass from places like BuildItGreen! and old sign shops, Fruin has created an incredible monument to the city of Brooklyn. The tower is lit by the sun during the day, but you can also admire the tower at night when programmed light sequences glow from within. The tower is located on the rooftop of 20 Jay Street; according to the press release, the prime viewing locations are the Brooklyn Bridge Park at Washington Street and the Manhattan Bridge bike path.
