2. It was named the world's most phallic building by some website
I work in Ypsi so I see it every day and every day I wonder what on earth they were thinking.

I was at the dedication of the tower serving as an usher. I attended the university at that time.

8. It's weird looking
On winter days I can see it across the Arb. I like Burton Tower better -- which I can hear from my house.

5. It beats the Yellowstone water tower, the Youngstown water tower,
and the Yakima water tower to be sure, but I'm afraid that the Yekaterinburg water tower beats all of these.
