description
This water tower is in the parking lot of a shopping center at North Loop and Buford (Horizon Blvd.)
I believe this was an abandoned grain silo that stood in a cotton field.
I can just barely remember when this was not painted (prior to 1992?). Certainly there were plenty of cotton fields along this stretch of North Loop, as well as dairy farms. If you have any other memories or stories of this neighborhood, we would love to hear them.
