I'm currently in the midst of filling up a town and I only recently added this water tower in one of the parts of the world. I'm going for a cozy and country small town feel and, of course, water towers are usually a must. But I'm just not quite sure if it suits the world so here I am asking all of your opinions :)Here are the pics I have of the tower from various aspects. I'll put it under the spoiler thing so that way nothing will be too slowed down here :)Spoiler (Highlight to read)https://66.media.tumblr.com/679a331d1b359c998d03c9d2f098b503/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo2_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/16e882d92bdfdf8c3397a4cdfa7970f6/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo3_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/51224f272fb5a17c280d0614e6acf7fb/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo6_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/76e4266fd52d07f2abaa75ae81f6dce1/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo4_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/2262b62c26f107d2222e249ee79fb01a/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo5_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/8df2b52cfce0a4116234f0ff4d5eddd4/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo8_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/f5f4f712e9c0fe28f84dc35d71e2659b/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo7_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/5131ca6b709892e61a23d45fb41ca2d4/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo1_r1_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/abbd28b05754cfbbd52641c6b9c9d276/tumblr_pp5ejvW4SD1xq9hdmo1_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/679a331d1b359c998d03c9d2f098b503/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo2_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/16e882d92bdfdf8c3397a4cdfa7970f6/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo3_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/51224f272fb5a17c280d0614e6acf7fb/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo6_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/76e4266fd52d07f2abaa75ae81f6dce1/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo4_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/2262b62c26f107d2222e249ee79fb01a/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo5_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/8df2b52cfce0a4116234f0ff4d5eddd4/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo8_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/f5f4f712e9c0fe28f84dc35d71e2659b/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo7_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/5131ca6b709892e61a23d45fb41ca2d4/tumblr_pp5dprme641xq9hdmo1_r1_1280.jpghttps://66.media.tumblr.com/abbd28b05754cfbbd52641c6b9c9d276/tumblr_pp5ejvW4SD1xq9hdmo1_1280.jpgI know that's a lot of pictures but I wanted to post enough so you all get an idea of the look it would add throughout that part of town. So now that you've seen the pics, what do you think?

For me an absolute yes. Lovely pictures by the way <3

I see every world through the eyes of a survivor during a zombie virus outbreak.That tower would be perfect as a sniper nest and it is located right next to the grocery store where you can find supplies.Only issue is the proximity to the hospital which become hotspots during the opening days of an epidemic and the area will be swarming with walkers. :| I mean umm yes it is cute keep it https://i.imgur.com/IsSpDDq.gif

You could do something along the lines of both if you wantedhttps://i.ytimg.com/vi/HfBk-IYCW14/hqdefault.jpg

This small town looks absolutely beautiful, and the water tower seems right at home in it. I can imagine it being one of those landmarks all the townfolk know, that young lovers might run off and meet under, and it would appear in the background of everyone's old photos so you'd know exactly where in town a photo was taken based on the distance from it. Definitely keep it! And I agree with CravenLestat, very useful in a zombie apocalypse. :p

On a purely practical note, what exactly are your sims supposed to do for clean water if you were to remove the tower? :o

Opinion Poll: Should I keep the water tower or not? (pic heavy)

Keep it! It makes the town look amazing! I'm picturing it without it, and to me it's almost like a monument to that town. Without it, it'd just look weird.

It looks totally natural and right to have it there.

It adds some very appealing character. I think I love the tower.

Lol wow this is completely unanimous then. Thank goodness for that, too, because I’m keeping the tower o:)

I decided to make it a ‘gas station’ lot with some junk piles for my inventing sims so not only does the water tower lot add some prettiness to my game, it also has some practical uses too :)
