Icons in the sky: Working list of tallest toro ellipsoidal water towers in the USA
Source:Toro ellipsoidal water towers (a.k.a. Toro or Torus water towers) are a design name you might not recognize when you hear it, but if you saw one, you would know the style immediately. These enormous towers tend to have a number of columns holding them up and then have a relatively narrow, oval shaped tank at the top that is considerably wider than it is tall. In some instances, one can see a resemblance to an alien spaceship on legs (see Kohler, WI below), while others may shaped like an oversized watermelon (see Luling, TX below).

Multi-column tanks are typically preferred in areas of high wind and/or seismic activity.

Another advantage that is not mentioned is their extra wide metal canvas allows for some fantastic painted images on the towers. Check out the Toro towers pictured throughout this post for some iconic examples. What a better way to demonstrate and broadcast local pride than with a giant, colorful mural some 150 feet in the air!
Luling, TX Source: atlasobscura.comSadly, as the list below will show, these Toro ellipsoidal water towers are another vanishing breed. As hydropillars and composite towers become more common, Toros are tending to fade from the landscape. If you see one, be sure to admire it, as fewer and fewer remain standing each year. The frustrating part is that some cities and towns do find ways to successfully care for and preserve their iconic towers over the years, while others seem not to care.
One of this authors favorites in on the west side of Tampa that includes an ode to the citys cigar-making history Source: yelp.comIf cities in Florida can so beautifully maintain and restore their iconic Toro towers in the heat, humidity, tropical storms, and salty air of the the Sunshine State, it seems the same could/should be done elsewhere with a dedicated and sustained plan and effort to do so.
Each historic water tower that is lost feels like yet another bit of our collective identity being discarded. We grew up admiring these enormous structures while riding our bikes around town or while watching the world pass by from the back seat of our parents car. They are/were an endearing symbol of homeof our communityof high schoolof collegeof workof play. Its sad to see these iconic pieces of Americana just go by the wayside.

Below is the working list with information gathered to date. Lost towers are also included for reference and comparison. Many heartfelt thanks to those folks from the various Public Works/Utilities/Water Departments who responded to my inquiries for their kindness and assistance in helping make this list is accurate as possible. Hopefully, more will respond over time to help make this list as complete as possible.
Images of some of the most iconic towers from across the nation have been placed throughout the post to admire and enjoy.
Peace!
**p.s. A very similar design, toro radial cone water towers will be listed in a separate post. The primary difference between these and toro ellipsoidal water towers is the lower half of the tank is not elliptical, but consists of a series of triangular pizza slice-shaped cones radiating out from the center column.**

"Lets make one thing very clear: So far, there is almost no proof that JD Vance is directly responsible for the death of Pope Francis. All we know is that the vice president met with the pope and, a few hours later, the pope was dead. To draw a line between those two facts would almost definitely be a little bit premature."
