Water Tank

Unity Tower has served many functions since its construction, but from the beginning, Rickert designed a place for a water tank. After creating Lake No. 1 in 1926, Unity needed a water tank to distribute the thousands of gallons of water needed to run the farm. Chicago Bridge and Iron Works provided the steel tank.
