Louisville Water Tower
September 20, 2024
Twenty-seven members and guests toured the Louisville Water Tower, a National Historic Landmark and the oldest ornamental water tower in the world. Among the things we learned: during the era when steam powered the pumps, the tower was actually a pipe for the release of pressure. Following the tour, several members headed to Apocalypse Brew Works for a round of beers.
