Old water tower coming down in Jefferson City

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KMIZ)

A water tower that has been up since the late 19th century will soon be demolished in Jefferson City.

Missouri American Water is tearing down a "standpipe" style water tower that was built in the 1890s, along with an old water filtration building that has been replaced with a new one, a company spokesperson said.

The demolition will take about a week.

Brooks Street from West Main to West High streets will be closed for the demolition at Missouri American Water's facility until Christmas Eve.
