Photograph of the Worthington Hills Water Tower with Repainting Complete, 2020

This photograph shows the water tower on the Worthington Hills Country Club property as it appeared on September 27, 2020, following the approximately month-long process of its repainting. The tower is freshly painted white. Click on the map in the lower right corner of this page to view other scrapbook entries showing the photographic progress of its repainting.

This tower supplies water to the Worthington Hills neighborhood, and is owned and maintained by Aqua Ohio. The tower has been repainted a couple of times since 2000, but in 2020 the company sandblasted the tower and added new primer and paint. The tower was likely built in the early 1970s, and replaced a water tank that stood at that spot when development of Worthington Hills began in the early 1960s. This type of water tower is known as a "pedesphere" or "golf ball and tee" tank.
