The New York Architects’ Regatta is a terrific charity event that provides New York City architecture firms with a chance to battle it out with each other on the race course, right on the Hudson off of lower Manhattan. Having the New York cityscape in the background is particularly fitting for this group of professionals that help to shape the look of the Big Apple.
This year, it was not a night for a sunset and cocktails on the water, like many of the spectators on Manhattan Sailing School’s unique floating clubhouse would have likely expected to 
experience. Instead, it was blowing over 20 as a cold front slowly settled in with record low tempuratures for mid-September. Not to mention periodic rain showers. Not everybody had the kind of top quality foul weather gear we are used to seeing (and we were wearing ourselves), but that didn’t hold anybody back. They sailed hard and had a good time!
