This is the a place called The Phoenix Building. I actually had the pleasure of disconnecting the Civil Defense Unions air raid siren that once called this place home. With the bombs we have these days they have no plan on warning us that we are fucked. Its just the way it is.....

This is home of the worlds first electric chair, old sparky. Today it is no longer used. I'm not even sure if New York has capital punishment anymore :-( .
