Ypsilanti Water Tower, January 1949 Photographer: Eck Stanger
Year:
1949
Published In:
Ann Arbor News, January 17, 1949
Caption:
Looking like an astronomical observatory atop its native stone column, Ypsilanti's 65-year-old water tower has been both a curiosity and a landmark for as long as most natives can remember. The tower was the major source of pressure for the city's water system until the installation a few years ago of modern centrifugal pumps at the main pumping station, but it still is used as a supplementary water tank. With the advent of police radio transmission, the tower now has an aerial at its peak which serves as a relay transmitter between cruising police cars and the main transmitter on S. Huron St. Water Department officials recall that it was built at an approximate cost of $30,000.
