water towers
Skyline storage cylinders
Water towers are elevated tanks that store water and maintain pressure in a distribution system.
The height creates gravitational force that pushes water through pipes to homes and businesses below.
They're iconic features of small-town skylines, often painted with the town name or a local mascot.
The old water tower was visible for miles across the prairie.
