Water Tower and Park Preservation Society Incorporated is a non-profit organization based in Saint Louis, MO that is dedicated to preserving the historic Water Tower and Reservoir Park. The society was founded in 1983 with the goal of restoring and maintaining the 19th-century water tower and park, which are both listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The water tower was built in 1871 and is one of the few remaining structures of its kind in the United States. It was originally used to store water for the city's fire department and has since become a symbol of the city's rich history. The park surrounding the water tower is also significant, as it was designed by renowned landscape architect George Kessler in the early 20th century.

The society's mission is to protect and enhance the Water Tower and Reservoir Park for future generations by promoting public awareness and appreciation of the historic significance of the site. They work to maintain the park's natural beauty and historic structures, as well as to educate the public about the history and significance of the water tower and park.

The Water Tower and Park Preservation Society Incorporated is run by a board of directors and relies on donations and volunteers to carry out their mission. They offer tours of the water tower and park, as well as educational programs and events throughout the year.
