“They’re part of a 45-by-50-foot digital clock created by artist Rudolph de Harak. While the numbers may appear to adorn the exterior of 135 John Street, the display clock actually belongs to the adjacent 200 Water Street, a 32-story building designed by the architecture firm of Emory Roth & Sons and completed in 1971. The device consists of 72 square sections, each containing a number from 00 to 59. Once lit to display the accurate time hour, minute, and second, the clock has lost time over the years but remains a Lower Manhattan landmark. In 1998, 200 Water was converted into a 576-unit residence hall and is now home to New York University undergraduates. Although NYU holds the lease on 200 Water Street, building owner Rockrose Development is responsible for maintaining the clock.”

    I used to work across the street from it in ‘99 — it was kinda fun, except when a number or two was out and you were actually trying to use it as a clock. … Though when I’ve been by in the past two years or so, it’s been off completely.

    Almost looks like a Keno board in Las Vegas. Great photo but I kind of wish that tree wasn’t there.
