ORANGE COUNTY ALMANAC : Water From on High
- Share via
One of Santa Ana’s landmarks is the water tower off the Santa Ana Freeway near 14th Street. Built in 1928 by Llewellyn Iron Works, it cost $73,000 and can hold nearly a million gallons. Because the water supply is elevated, it can be distributed without pumps.
The tower’s crown features the city’s distinctive “Education First” logo.
