Sudbury's water tower lives!
Summer 2011 |
It was decommissioned in 1998 by the Sudbury City Council several months after the Minnow Lake water reservoir was installed which hold approximately 8,000,000 gallons of water. On Feb. 26, 2010, Media Environmental Group Service approached Westar Investments, which had purchased the tower from the city with the idea of turning converting it to a restaurant and office space, to buy the property. Purchase was contingent on a rezoning application approval. The proposed application gives permission to convert the bandoned water tower into residential dwelling units, commercial office space, banquet facilities and a restaurant. The proposal also calls for the establishment of 12 advertising Artboards to be leased by a variety of advertisers. The billboards will measure 20 feet by 32 feet and will be permitted in conjunction with the commercial space. For more information, visit www.sudburywatertower.com.
