For years I thought it was a guard tower. Turns out:
"The history of the 130-foot radio and cell phone tower three blocks from the intersection of Ocean Terrace and Todt Hill Road traces back some 40 years to a Todt Hill resident and communications pioneer who helped develop the clear, static-free signal known as FM radio.
The late communications entrepreneur Frank Gunther almost immediately stirred controversy in Todt Hill when he moved his odd-looking radio tower from Yonkers to a site behind his home on Highpoint Road in 1967." |
