Default Palo Alto's Heart Shaped Water Tower (pic)

Romantic? Maybe. Heart-shaped? Definitely.

This is TV' water tower as seen from my back yard in Palo Alto. Of course, it's just the lights below illuminating the tower that makes it appear heart-shaped at night, but I sure like it!

I have not noticed that with any of the other water towers though. Maybe, it is factored into where you are viewing the water towers at night?

Striking picture. I have never noticed the tower that bright and will have to look next time I am cruising at night. Thanks for sharing.

Ah, now I see why you said it was romantic.

In addition to a heart, it also looks like a giant tulip. Or a kid with a graduation hat on. I better stop before it get psychoanalyzed.

K9, thanks for sharing the unusual water tower perspective.

I've noticed that also, driving along Buena Vista close to 466A. Is that the same water tower you see from Palo Alto??? It is beautiful.

You are seeing a different water tower. Yes, I think they are beautiful, too.
