The tower and tank were built in 1928 as part of the village's new water system, which had been approved the previous year. The water system was introduced both as a response to several fires which had plagued the village and as an effort to bring modern technology and progress, among other civic concerns. The water tower consists of a steel tank with a hemispherical bottom supported by a steel trestle; the structure is {{convert|136.5|ft}} tall. The ground storage tank, located at the base of the tower, is made of redwood and holds {{convert|30,000|USgal}} of water.[2] The structures were added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 5, 2003.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}{{NRHP in Henry County, Illinois}}{{Illinois-NRHP-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|last1=Sampson|first1=Lori|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: West Water Tower and Ground Storage Tank|url=http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/223182.pdf|publisher=Illinois Historic Preservation Agency|accessdate=February 29, 2016|date=August 5, 2002}} 5 : Industrial buildings and structures on the National Register of Historic Places in Illinois|Buildings and structures completed in 1928|National Register of Historic Places in Henry County, Illinois|Water towers in Illinois|Water towers on the National Register of Historic Places in Illinois |
