Dorris
A water tower above a working valley.
Regional context only
Dorris’s water tower rises among homes and streets with fields beyond. The view connects the small built center with Butte Valley’s farmland and grasslands. Project research follows that relationship outward toward nearby wetlands, while the original aerial keeps the town itself in view.
