Water Towers In New York

March 25, 2013
tags: , ,

 

We noticed the water towers of New York straight away, as we walked the streets. They are on top of buildings that are over six stories, and are made of wood which is not painted or chemically treated.The water is pumped from the basement and the average tank takes 2-3 hours to fill, holding approximately 40.000 litres. The water is for general use including drinking. We became obsessed with them, and were always looking up trying to spot a different one. Here are the best of them.

I just love this building in the Chelsea District, as seen from the High Line.
