Many moons ago that building was loaded with airline pilots and stewardesses from JFK. They used the apartments between flights on a rotating basis. Whomever had a lay over used the apartment. Of course, that's going back to the late 60's and early 70's. I'm sure things have changed by now.

I was 13 years old and also buffed this. I remember walking around the block a few times and seeing the Super Pumper.
