Ear of Corn Water Tower

Rochester’s love for the iconic Corn Cob Water Tower is on full display this 507 Day thanks to an incredible local cake and celebrations happening across the city.

Olmsted County has been trying to identify a use for the property since it was acquired in 2019.

Olmsted County purchased the former Seneca Foods property for $5.6 million in 2019.

The deadline is March 28.

We see them all the time across various cities and towns here in Minnesota, but have you ever seen the inside of a water tower? We now know what it looks like!

The City Council will also be deciding on nearly a million dollars in property tax assessments for a major road project.

For many, the decision should be a "no-brainer."

I saw a couple of people on Facebook mention that they had heard a rumor that Rochester's ear of corn water tower came from France. Has anyone else heard this same rumor?

A question about the ear of corn water tower led to someone saying they were NOT a fan. Are they alone or do you agree?
