If you were to ask me to name the one photograph that I would snap to best describe the city of Frisco, I would smile and say the Old Water Tower. The Old Water Tower can be found at 7th and Elm Street in Frisco. However, on a sunny day, the white-clad water tower donned with a brightly painted red roof and stamped with the very same raccoon skin emblem of the St. Louis-San Francisco railroad line, from which the city derived its name, can be seen seemingly glowing from many vantage points throughout Frisco. In 1924, the 50,000-gallon water tower was completed and placed in service. It would be the lone water tower for the city of Frisco over the next 61 years. The tower was decommissioned in the 1990's. The City of Frisco has grown vastly around the Old Water Tower since then, with noted growth in the diversity of types of businesses, cultures, sports, and the arts. #friscocaptured. photography by Perry L.
