The Chicago Water Tower was built in 1869 to house a 138 foot tall standpipe which could hold water and give the pressure needed for controling water surges as well as to fight fires. The tower and the pumping station are a couple of the few buildings, and only remaining, to survive the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Both were designed by arcitect William W. Boyington. Model created by Jordan Van Wyk.
