Bearing the name of the town of Latham on its sides and a red and white checkerboard pattern, the Latham Water Tower was a place that attracted both praise for its flamboyance and harsh words from beginner pilots trying to land at Albany Airport. After the east-west runway was extended the tower was considered a hazard by the airport and was demolished in March 2011.
