Water Treatment Plant, near Yenda

Water Treatment Plant, near Yenda

I know, your eyes are drawn to those two huge bright blue tanks at this water treatment plant near Yenda, NSW, but what about the squat, square concrete structure. Sure, it has some unsympathetic modern additions of PVC pipes but it also has some subtle stepping about two thirds of the way up.

  1. I like this building, I was drawn to it more than the nondescript thing beside it.

  2. You have a good eye. I really like the details on this building because since it is functional, practical building in the country they could have just made it a completely square box but they went to the trouble and expense to incorporate some decorative elements.

  3. David, that's so true. It's great that the architect took aesthetics into consideration.
