Celebrating World Water Week!

The much-loved Water Tower and Pumping Station were designed to help bring clean from Lake Michigan to the city. The Gothic Revival buildings were designed by architect William Boyington, and built with yellow Joliet limestone.

The ornate castellated Gothic Revival structure was really only built to hide a simple standpipe.

One of our family members lived at The Brewster on Pine Grove Avenue in Chicago. To access his condo we took the elevator in the sky lit atrium and walked across cast iron and glass block bridge walkways. Pretty cool!
