Dal marks “end of an era” with removal of Agricultural Campus water tower

News

The water tower at Dalhousie University’s Agricultural Campus will soon be removed after serving as a campus landmark for nearly 70 years. The tower was originally constructed in 1955 at what was then the Nova Scotia Agricultural College, and had been decommissioned in 2017 after the campus transitioned to the municipal water system. “Buildings and structures change over time, but the stories attached to them remain part of the fabric of the campus,” concluded Dal Faculty of Agriculture Dean Heather Bruce. “For those who spent time at NSAC and the Agricultural Campus, the water tower will likely always have a place in their memories of campus.” The tower will be removed by the end of October.
