Thomas Hill Standpipe

The landmark was designed a firm in Massachusetts and was assembled in 1897. The shell is 110 feet high and 85 feet in diameter, with a 38 foot high flag pole at the top.

With benches on the 12-foot wide and 280-foot circumference promenade, the standpipe beckoned visitors year-round to climb its interior stairs to the deck to take in the beautiful view. Although the standpipe is no longer open year-round, the Bangor Water District opens it once every season for people to climb the wooden staircase around the tank and take in the magnificent view from the promenade deck.
