Descripción del sitio
These water towers were designed by Swedes Sune Lindstrom and Malene Bjorn in 1962. They were then completed in 1979 (built by a Serbian construction company) and opened to the public. The tallets tower (nearest the placemark) contains a restaurant and a viewing sphere 123 meters above the Gulf, as well as a water tower in the bulb beneath them. Though there was damage to the towers from the Iraqi invasion, it was not significant and was easily repaired. The design and construction highlight the diverse population of Kuwait, Swedish designers and Serbian builders, and how Kuwait views all people as equals. Kuwait is a progressive land indeed.
