Another beautiful historical structure in this area of North St. Louis. If you look carefully from this point, you should be able to see the Grand Avenue Corinthian column just about a block away. Apparently it is possible to go into the tower and get a view from the top. Unfortunately, the city seems to really neglect this area and that is not currently possible. I really hope that the City of St. Louis decides to invest in North St. Louis a bit. They need it!

There are only a handful of these old standpipe water towers left around the country, and St. Louis has the most with three. The Bissell Street Water Tower is located in the north of the city with its more well known counterpart, the Grand Avenue Water Tower. That said, the tower is architecturally impressive as it rises above the surrounding street. Definitely an interesting and notable piece of St. Louis history.

Historic structure that was renovated about 50 years ago. In good condition but no entry is allowed. The white tower is close by but not much to look at. In an extremely sketchy neighborhood so drive-by is fine but use caution if walking in the area.
