Evansville Standpipe, Historic water tower in Evansville, United States.
The Evansville Standpipe rises 80 feet into the sky, featuring a straight steel ladder on its west side and a cylindrical steel construction designed for water storage.
Built in 1901 by the Chicago Bridge & Iron Company, this structure emerged after a devastating fire in 1896 destroyed sections of downtown Evansville.
The standpipe represents the transition from individual wells to municipal water systems, marking a significant change in community infrastructure during the early 1900s.
Located at 288 North 4th Street, the structure stands on elevated ground, which provided natural pressure for water distribution throughout the town.
This water tower remains the last surviving example of its architectural type in Wisconsin and gained National Register of Historic Places status in 2008.
