5 Years Ago Today….Shooting The Watertower

Tom Fruin's Watertower was created in 2012, and sits on top of 20 Jay Street in Brooklyn, New York.

“When Fruin and his wife returned to the states from Denmark, his wife asked him to name a good icon for New York City. ‘I instantly said ‘the watertower,’ then I made the first one that’s on Jay Street.’……’One reason I installed the piece on 20 Jay was so I could see it from the Manhattan Bridge bike path. It was nice to see it morning and night—like bookends to my day,’ Fruin said of his days cycling between DUMBO and his former East Village home.” - Bklyner, “Meet The Artist Behind Brooklyn’s Kaleidoscopic Water Towers”
