- Description
- This photo of the newly built water tower was taken in St. Marys in 1901 by local amateur photographer Milton Reesor. This photo was likely taken looking north. However there are no noticeable landmarks nearby to give clues of the exact direction of the view. There appears to be railway tracks on the bottom right of the photo. The wood stacked around the tower could have been for the scaffolding during construction or for house building nearby.
- Notes
- Condition: Good - Image is fairly clear. Yellowing and discolouration on original image. Wear of the photo paper along the right edge. Album matte is in excellent condition.
