79th Street Rotunda
The 79th Street Rotunda is a circular park that overlooks the Hudson River in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, New York City. The 79th Street Boat Basin is adjacent. Construction of the Rotunda was begun in 1934 and completed in 1937. It was planned by New York City Parks Commissioner Robert Moses, as part of a larger project called the West Side Improvement Project. The project constructed the West Side Highway system, while beautifying Riverside Park, which many at the time viewed as dirty and inaccessible. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
