Old Florence Water Tower

Its tall masonry base reflects the water-supply investment that accompanied the town’s growth as an industrial and commercial center.

Plan an exterior architectural stop from permitted public areas. The photograph shows the surviving tower. This is not a staffed observation attraction, and a historic designation does not provide permission to enter, climb or pass fences. Check current local signs for access and keep neighboring entrances clear. Read the tower in the context of the city’s wider historic streetscape.
