☞ ARCHITECTURE: The Webber Building


Walking along 119th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues, one will find a curious building with cow heads poking out of terracotta portholes.  As discussed in today's New York Times, this yellow bricked building was a refrigerator storage facility for English beef baron Richard Webber, built in 1895 when industry was still in Harlem.
