A visitor to just about any small Arkansas town will usually see a large structure towering above the community. That structure, often the tallest in the town, is designed to hold water at a sufficient height to pressurize the town’s supply. These water towers are sometimes emblazoned with a slogan, but more often they are like this one in McGehee (Desha County), displaying only the town’s name.
