Fish in the sky

You see this water tank on the left as you enter the Kennedy Expressway from the Ohio Street on-ramp. We thought you might like a closer look.
This is the only water tank I've seen in Chicago with a mural painted on it. Are there ones I've missed?

Theres one in Greek Town too. No art just text on it.

Correction–this is the Greek town water tower. They've just repainted it.

Bob,
If you're referring to the water tower above, it's not in Greek Town. It's right on the Ohio Street on-ramp, and it's east of the river.
Here's a shot of it in context, looking west along the on-ramp.

A water tower at Foster and Clark in Andersonville has a Swedish flag painted on it. Does that count?
On closer inspection, is that actually a mural painted on the water tower in the above photo? It looks like stretched fabric to me.
