Fucking do it. The towers should be on the National Register. How many are there total in the US? 7?
You know, I’ve searched far and wide, and I’ve never been able to find an actual source for the seven water tower count. Regardless of the City of St. Louis’s claim, I can’t think of any better way to possibly jump start development in any given area than by renovating the neighborhood’s focal point.
