The Water Towers are identical with a cylindrical tank, a conical top and a hemispherical bottom. Each one is supported by 8 steel legs. There are two rows of red and white checkerboard.
The water towers are visible from cruise ships in the Gutan Locks.
Don't confuse these two water towers with another two water towers (

~ coordinates estimated from Google Maps which are clear enough that you can see the legs ~
