Water Tower This iconic 49,000 stainless-steel structure looms over the downtown area with it’s close proximity to the intersection of Hwy 75 and Hwy 16 and the railroad tracks that run through the center of town. The tank was built in 1940 and was the town’s water supply for many years until new ground water tanks were built. Now, many fun-filled events take place throughout the year under the water tower at Community Corner. It’s one of the most recognizable monuments of downtown Waxhaw. 116 McDonald Street | Waxhaw, NC 28173

R.J. Belk Building das Located directly across from the Pedestrian Bridge, this historic building was home of the Belk store from 1894 to 1938. This building has served many purposes after the Belk store closed. In 1970, the Belk family donated the building to the Waxhaw Woman’s Club and restorations were made. Currently, the Waxhaw Woman’s Club rents the building for community events, private parties, and special occasions. 200 E. South Main Street | Waxhaw, NC 28173 https://waxhawwomansclub.org 10
