Uralmash water tower, Yekaterinburg, Russia.

The water tower was designed by M. Reisher and completed in 1931. Uralmash, or Ural’s’kiy Mashinostroitelnyy Zavod (Urals Machine-Building Plant), originally produced heavy equipment for the Urals’ mining and metallurgical industries. Later the plant produced military equipment, including the T-34 tank, before returning to heavy industry.  The area of workers’ homes around the plant is also called Uralmash.
