This was once a facility that ran seven days a week, 24 hours per day. The surrounding community was a vibrant collection of lives that depended on the US textile industry for its livelihood. Now the rusting hulk of the water tower is imprisoned behind locked fences as evidence of a thriving community and industry that once lived, breathed, and exuded the American dream of prosperity and growth.
