The Jones Beach Water Tower is bathed in orange light as a full moon passes overhead on Wednesday, July 2, 2004.
Long Island's best-loved 78-year-old is about to get a face-lift.
The Jones Beach water tower has been showing its age:its copper roof, the structural steel framing encased in concrete, and portions of deteriorating brick and limestone will be replaced at a cost of $3.3 million.
