Trudeau Sanatorium Historic District, Reference Number 27
Year built: 1924-30
Other names: Water Storage Tank (active)
The highest building in altitude at the sanatorium is this 100,000 gallon tank and its attached boiler house. The tank is used to store water from the village system and boost its pressure. This feature is located at the end of a winding gravel road behind Ludington Infirmary. Virtually hidden from public view, the tank is a large squat riveted metal cylinder with a conical riveted metal roof; the boiler house (which sits in front of the tank) is a low gable-form wing of Roman brick with a metal-shingled roof. Both components sit on poured concrete foundations. At the junction of the two components is a rectangular common brick chimney, which tapers as it rises.
See Old Reservoir for more information on the water system at the sanatorium.
