(Near) Charlotte, (South) Carolina #3
This peachy water tower just outside Gaffney was easy to ’see’ and a very pleasant surprise compared to ’standard’ water towers. The transformation of ugly, functional technologies like this into humerous, aesthetically pleasing, objects shows good humour and imagination. It is difficult not to smile when you see the giant Peach. I love it!
Have you seen any bizarre or wonderful water towers?

In American cities they have brightly coloured plastic or metal newspaper dispensers. These dispensers can hold anything from free ‘events’ and ‘housing’ papers through to expensive National or international newspapers.
The photograph below shows a row of them on South Tyron St. in downtown Charlotte.

I’m in Charlotte North Carolina for a while. I nearly missed ’seeing’ this cellular tower because of its cunning camoflage! The give-away clue is mainly that it is much taller than surrounding trees. It’s very near the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC).
Have you seen any cunningly disguised cellular towers?
If so I’d love to hear about them, find out where they are and see pictures
Night night, Wendy
