While camping in the heart of the Lake Taghkanic State Park campgrounds over weekend, my lady and I came across this tower.

Here are some daytime shots

cool looking place! any idea what it is/was?

i like the long-exposure shots with stars, and the one showing the wooden roof from the inside... nice!

Thanks man!

As far as what it is, I'm not really sure other than some kind of water/watchtower. I tried finding info on it but to no avail. It would be cool if someone can shed a little light onto the history of it.

Thanks for the great pictures! This is our East Water Tower. It holds 30,000 gallons of chlorinated drinking water that feeds our campground and camping area via gravity. It was designed and built in the early 1930's by The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), an unemployment relief program started by President FDR to pull America out of The Great Depression.
