KID PK on the New Jersey water tower
I was watching this video on the mystery of KID PK graffiti when I saw my own photo of the iconic graffiti water tower location in the video. I figured if they were going to steal my image, I may as well add a couple more to the mix.
I remember stopping on the side of the New Jersey Turnpike a few years back to capture this tower with my telephoto lens. There’s not much room on the edges so trucks are often zooming by at highway speeds — quite dangerous if I remember correctly.
The tower was demolished not too long ago and today the location of the tower is a massive Modway warehouse facility. If you go to 40°16'40.7"N 74°30'12.5"W on Google Maps or Google Earth you can likely go back in history and see the tower preserved digitally.
My original image which can be seen in the beginning of the video above.
Here’s drone footage of the water tower getting demolished.
