"Ecopreneur" R. David Gibbs (also a member of green team Collective Four) presents NYCWTF, or New York City Water Tower Furniture, a public works concept that creates an interactive public resting/meeting place using reclaimed wood from the city's iconic water towers.
These upcycled benches would ideally be placed at strategic points throughout the city to accommodate a solar-powered LED light show ("Manhattan Borealis") highlighting various wooden water towers across NYC's skyline, enhancing the existing nighttime glow. Accordingly, the previously mentioned benches would become the "best seats in the house" for the nightly light shows, and on top of it all, a website would be launched to support NYCWTF projects by creating a virtual community surrounding this and other sustainable design activities.
