The first water system on Forest Grove was constructed in 1895 and was privately owned by E. W. Haines. Water was pumped from Gales Creek near the present Light Department building to the water tower. . This stored water was used mainly for fighting fires and some irrigation. The water tower was located on A Street between Pacific Avenue and 21st Avenue and set back from the street. This picture was taken from 21st Avenue looking southeast. The back of the Laughlin House (hotel) is on the right.
