This water tower has a 200,000 gallon capacity, supplies water to the entire city of Appleton and was built in 1993.

Volume wise, this water tower is about 70 times as big as a cement mixer truck, could fill 1,000 hot tubs and 10,000 car gas tanks. But it is only big enough to fill 3/10 of an olympic swimming pool. It would take about 34 of these towers to fill The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and 50 towers would be needed to fill the U.S. Capital Rotunda.

By the way, 3,500,000 baseballs would fit inside the Appleton water tower.
