The Water Tower stands as a striking piece of early modern engineering on Margaret Island, now linking industry, art and the island's leisure culture.
A functional landmark above the trees
Built to supply water for the island, the tall tower became one of its most recognisable structures. Its architecture reflects a time when utility buildings could also be ambitious elements of the city skyline.
A second life in culture
Instead of remaining only an infrastructure site, the tower has been used for exhibitions and views, connected to the island's open-air theatre and cultural programmes. Access to these functions varies with events.
