Description
Architect: Emery Roth & Sons
- 77 Water Street actually has a WWI Biplane complete with a landing strip on the rooftop of the building. Apparantly its a full-size model of a WWI Sopwith Camel, designed by Rudolph de Harak, in 1969. It was built primarily to amuse the inhabitants of surrounding skyscrapers, notably the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center.
- Heres a shot of it from the 44th floor of the nearby 60 Street.
