This is the 26th St. Armory build in 1904 it's the home of the 165th NY National Guard Battalion. The 165th was partially deployed during the immediate aftermath of 9/11 and I believe provides the National Guard troopers currently stationed at Penn Station, Grand Central and a few other transit hubs since then. For all you Zombie gamers the 165th troops are deployed with minimal kit a canteen and a pistol.
Many of the 165th's vehicles are parked on the street around the Armory. As you can see from the first two shots many of the National Guard vehicles still sport the woodland camo all US vehicles were painted with during the cold war. You will not that the newer vehicles are painted in a basic tan.
