Gotham City

Back to NYC. Thankfully, to help me remember what this was, I snapped one of the plaque on the building.

New York Yacht Club

The New York Yacht club building is one of the most expressive examples of beaux-arts architecture in the country. Dedicated in 1901, the clubhouse was the first New York City Commission of Architects Warrent & Wetmore, establishing the firm's distinguished repuutation, the limestone facade of the New Yrok Yacht Club is sculpted with Nautical Motifs featuring a trio of windows carved to resemble the sterns of seventeenth-century dutch yachts, as well as ornamental seashells, dolphins and dripping seaweed. Yadda, Yadda, Yadda.
