Upper West Side Coffee Table
The vertical grain Redwood used for this coffee table is sourced from the staves of a 20th century water tower which once stood on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Not only a great piece of New York history but made from a giant that no longer exists on the planet for commercial use. The legs are made from salvaged frosted acrylic.
