Holding Water makes this family over $18M a year.
In the 1870’s, New York City founded the Department of Public Works. Their main priority was to create a drainage system that would ease the pain of the rapidly growing population.
By 1880, the city began using indoor plumbing versus the antiquated well-drawn water systems. This was the start of top-floor storage tanks, allowing for water pressure to remain strong while in new high rises. Within a few years, these tanks were required by city law.
These tanks are the wooden water towers we still see today.
Yet, the craziest thing I’ve ever heard:
Since 1880 there have been only THREE companies that make these tanks.
All of which are privately owned by families.
One of these companies was bought in 1897 for $55, The Rosenwach Tank Company.
They don’t have a ton of new information online but here is what I found:
Each year they average about 250 new tanks (presumably more since the 2020 uptick in building). At avg. cost of $55k a tank, they are making $13.75M/year in revenue just on new installments.
NYC has a law that every 35 years all tanks must be replaced. Since these companies have been around for over 150 years, they are their own best friend. Circulating business for themselves. This adds about $6M/year in revenue.
These numbers date back to 2012, but what’s awesome about this specific company — they have branched out, expecting these tanks to be outdated in time.
Now, The Rosenwach Tank Company also builds Heating and Cooling systems for buildings & they use their remaining wood to help build furniture. Furniture accounts for about 10% of the business currently.
I was on a long run this past Saturday and snapped the picture below. Wooden water tanks are still at the forefront of our skyscrapers’ draining systems. Fun to see the worn & dated tanks next to the new.
Lastly, just to share, this article here was awesome to read — tons of pictures of the process.
New Book: Okay, I know I read a lot, but it’s because I listened to audiobooks while also reading a different physical book. Anyway, my BFF Anna told me to read Lady Tan’s Circle of Women, and whoa. I’m about halfway through, but if you are at all interested in learning about how a woman in 15th-century China is able to practice medicine, you need to read. Honestly, give the book a go even if you aren’t interested. The book is based on the true tale of a female physician during this time and the importance of gender representation in medicine. There are a lot of layers to the story — but it definitely takes me out of my realm and introduces me to a life I know nothing about. If you read it, let me know what you think!
Have you heard of the Speed Project? It’s a race from Santa Monica to Las Vegas — a total of 340 Miles to run, and it’s brutal. You run in teams but need to be strategic and well-equipped. This upcoming year an LSC member, Lindsey, is fundraising for her team — I highly urge you all to check out their story here. You can also donate directly to their funds here, which goes to breast cancer research and the cost of racing! Super pumped to watch them, I know I will be cheering them on!!
The internet is hilarious. This kid put his dad in a giant balloon and it is by far one of the most wholesome videos ever. You need to watch it.
