NYC Water Tank Converted Into Apartment Atop Condo (PHOTOS)

PHOTOS: Water Tank Converted Into Rooftop 'Cottage'

New York's iconic water tanks lend themselves to great public artwork, so it makes sense that, with the right renovations, they could make for great apartments.

Owners of a condo in Greenwich Village have converted one rusty water tank into a rooftop "cottage," complete with 24-foot high ceilings, heat, air conditioning, cable, and tall windows, allowing generous views of the Manhattan skyline.

The cottage, surrounded by a private terrace, sits atop a two bedroom pre-war style apartment. According to the listing by Douglas Elliman, the property's asking price is $3.6 million.
