White house: it was formerly occupied by the highest ranking officer, the chief of the navy yard but it has been privately owned since the 1970’s.

I took these two pictures from Brooklyn Navy Yard. The first one is the rooftop with water-loving grass, which is used to conserve rain water for toilets flush. The second picture is an old construction from the past, which is being preserved and upgraded using new and efficient protection system.
