Despite the rainy and gloomy weather, the street around the New York City's West Village building were covered in bouquets of flowers with fans paying their respects to Perry on Sunday.
Perry was found dead Saturday in a jacuzzi at his Los Angeles home from an apparent drowning. He was 54.
The beloved actor rose to fame for his portrayal of the comedic Chandler Bing on "Friends," so it was only right that fans gathered outside the iconic building used to shoot the outside of the show's building.
"It feels strange to feel sad about it, but it really has been a sad morning," 29-year-old Catherine Schmitt told Variety. "It's been my comfort show since I can remember. I can't imagine watching it now without feeling deep sadness."
The show ran from 1994 to 2004 and still has a huge fan base to this day. Perry became synonymous with his character Chandler Bing, the witty and sarcastic member of the group.

"There is light in the darkness," Perry wrote in the prologue. "You just have to look hard enough to find it."

"When he spoke about it, it just made everybody feel like we're not alone," she said.
