Erected in the 1920s. Since the project belonged to Shukhov, the tower was named after the author. Until 1975, the tower was actively used as part of the city’s water supply system. As a result of dilapidation it fell into disrepair and was decommissioned. Later it was included in the list of historical monuments. The authorities restored it and a restaurant was located inside, but not for long.
