LEWISVILLE, Texas The above-ground water tank in Lewisville towers over Interstate 35 and is recognizable to many people. It is both unassuming and yet towering. The sad reality is that the tower must finally come down after so many years. A lot of people know Lewisville because of the water tower, said historian Gary Kerbow.
The Fighting Farmer s Water Tower has been a part of the city skyline since 1960. It was first built in 1959, when Lewisville boasted a population of just 4,000 people.
