The New York City Water Tower

Who doesn't love the New York City water tower? This episode,
hosted by Michelle Young, founder of Untapped New York, is an
exploration of how water towers work and why New Yorkers find
them so endearing. Guests include artist Tom Fruin, who makes
those amazing glass water tower sculptures, Larry Hoffman, a New
Yorker who spent his career installing water towers, the duo
behind Boundless Brooklyn who designed a DIY water tower kit that
we've put in every office and apartment we've had, and historian
and playwright Justin Rivers, who knows everything about New York
City. We'll even talk about a secret water tower speakeasy in New
York City. The Untapped New York Podcast is produced by Untapped
New York. Music by Kittens Ablaze ("Hotel Room", "Liarbird"),
Absent Tiger ("Take it or Leave It"), and additional sounds by
Daniel Simion. New York City skyline in icon by Bernadette Moke,
the Downtown Doodler.
