Description:
|
Once able to hold 3, 000,000 gallons of water, this concrete edifice is a symbol of civic pride and serves as a locus of neighborhood redevelopment. The tank was designed by Kruckemeyer & Strong in conjunction with the Greater Cincinnati Waterworks Council and design engineer W.S. Hewitt. The Ferro Concrete Construction Company completed construction in 1940, and the entire structure was renovated in the 1960s due to design flaws.
