If your not from Michigan let me explain, this water tower is iconic and has a plethora of nicknames due to its unique....shape. I'm guessing you readers can fill in the blank as to what some of those nicknames may be. Regardless of what it's called it's the most recognizable water tower in southeast Michigan!

It's certainly historic and whatnot but think twice about living near it. There's constantly construction on or near it, and the city never posts any updates on what's going on with it. Also this thing really is ugly as sin. There's no two ways about it.
