Sing it with me!! This is Libbys, Libbys, Libbys I the label, label, label you will like it, like it, like it on the Tower,Tower,Tower!The original tower supplied water to the Cannery, it was replaced in 1965 by this present structure. Around the structure are benches and a couple tables as well as a lawn to sit on and have a picnic there is also beautiful and I mean beautiful landscaping all around it. Wifey and I visited on a Saturday and it was so peaceful here as there was nobody else around.

It has lot of history to it. The tower is a sugary-sweet reminder of Libby’s, which in the early 1920s was the city’s largest employer in Sunnyvale. This iconic 150,000-gallon water tower has been selected as one of the top 12 finalists for the 2017 Tank of the Year competition sponsored by Tnemec Company. Its great work from the city to keep this historic heritage intact and painting it like Libby’s fruit cocktail can from 1930s. Definitely grab a picture and hang around if youre close-by. Its proudly located inside corporate campus of Walmart & Ratheon. Good location for meet-ups, walks as there are trails built around.

Good landmark but not enough trails in the area to make a good walking spot. Possible a good meeting point as there is parking.
