Well Reserved

From Dave Brigham:

Out and about in Arlington, Mass., recently, I was pleasantly surprised to stumble across this beautiful building on a hill with a view of Boston.

Arlington Reservoir #1

Known as the Arlington Reservoir or the Park Circle Water Tower, it was built between 1921 and 1924, and is an exact copy of the rotunda of the Samothrace temple complex in Greece, according to Wikipedia.

It's pretty damn impressive.
