Gair Building No. 7 (Clocktower) in DUMBO![]() The Clocktower building in DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), built 1915 as part of a big cardboard company (Mr Gair actually invented corrugated cardboard, it seems); at the time of its construction, it was the largest concrete cast building in the US.
Now converted into upscale lofts.

I like that clock! What's there at the top of the building? The roof space has lots of windows.
