    For Brandon Bosley’s Ward, Grand Avenue Water Tower Makeover Is A Big Deal
    Evie Hemphill
    The Grand Avenue Water Tower has been a familiar sight for Brandon Bosley since he moved to St. Louis’ College Hill neighborhood at age 7 — until this past weekend, that is. Now the 3rd Ward alderman will need to get used to the tower’s bright new facade. On Saturday, a host of volunteers helped give the 149-year-old tower a long-overdue fresh coat of paint as part of the St. Louis community’s latest Operation Clean Sweep.
