NextImg:NYC pre-war building endowed with a roof that resembles a penis

Great views! Sunny kitchen! Well-endowed roof deck!

An Upper West Side pre-war building hasn’t been coy about its prized amenity, with listings boasting to prospective buyers and renters about access to a “beautifully landscaped rooftop deck.”  

When viewed from above on Google Maps, however, the roof of the 8-story building on West 113th Street bears an uncanny resemblance to a certain male appendage, as one keen-e Reddit user first pointed out

“While exploring Google Maps I found a penis-shaped roof deck on the upper west side,” the user wrote. 

“I would kill for a deck that large,” another joked. 

The co-op’s roof deck was erected more than two decades ago by New York Decks president and CEO Al Terry, who said he had no idea that the woodwork had a lewd look.

“The thing was designed more or less on a napkin by the garden designer . . . then it was up to us to really flesh it out,” he said.  

“This project was a step in . . . my career to create unusual spaces, so we’re proud of the results.”

A 1-bedroom, 1-bath sold for $275,000 in December at the building, which is sandwiched between a parking garage and Columbia University’s Chabad branch. 

Pride Property, which manages the building, did not respond to requests for comment.
