p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Beach Haven Water Tower


I've taken an interest in photographing water towers. This one is in Beach Haven, NJ, and it towered over all other structures in this NJ shore town. Painted orange, you can't miss it. I wonder if it was completed on Halloween.

Any chance of moving to a place that shows the name complete? Also think this needs a tighter crop, to make the tower more prominent.

Hi Ben and it was a trade off for me, getting the framing of the building but not seeing the whole sign. Here's a closer look with your suggestion.

I see where you are heading, I think I like the framing, just not so much and the full wording is not as critical.

Just seven more and you'll have a grid like the Bechers

(Saw a lot of their work yesterday at re-opened SF MOMA.)

Thanks for looking Kirk. I do have the other 7. Now I just need the time to process them.

These water towers are beautiful structures, and their architecture varies quite a bit . The Bechers were way ahead of their time in realizing that these unique structures in Germany were being razed and vanishing and by making a record of them they were documenting them for posterity. One of their tower photos is presently on view at the Met in NYC.
