NoMa Station Water Tower

20 06 2008

It’s not all about super slick modern design in our fair city, sometimes the preservation of older functional design features like this water tower really do it for us! Water towers are fairly common in other cities like NYC, but in DC they are rare, which is probably why we were so impressed when we saw this one out the window while we were in NoMa at Artomatic last weekend. The NoMa Station project has repainted their old water tower old school style and it looks great.

Hasn’t the water tower been like this for a while now? I see it everyday and it looks the same to me.

I do really like it though. It’s a great landmark.
