(ABC 6 News) – A couple big construction projects are nearing completion in Albert Lea. Crews are putting the final pieces in place for the new water tower on Fountain Street. The 18 stories tall tower is 4 stories taller than the original built in 1938. And, East Main Street will open the middle of next week. The goals of this project are to reduce accidents and flooding on the busy roadway that averages 13,000 vehicles every day.
