The Light Bulb Water Tower is still there! Glad I finally found it, by mistake!

Water tower for Holcor painted to resemble an old-fashioned lightbulb.
[Jason Berry, 11/10/2012]The illusion is marred by the company logo and and the cell tower array on top. Can't wait until they repaint it as an energy-efficient bulb.
