St. Marys Heritage Landmark

Andy | Monday, January 18, 2016 | Best Blogger Tips

The water tower was built in 1899 and is a solid stone structure which is representative of other stone buildings erected during this period within the Town of St. Marys. It is one of the best examples of industrial architecture constructed during the turn of the century in Southwestern Ontario.
