People of the barrio tell two different stories about its origins.<\/p>\n<p>On the one hand, they say, it was placed there in order to furnish water to the group of houses known as Casas de Abel Guardiola, which were built between 1955 and 1956 in Enrique Navarro street, including the Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Trenco square. The tower also facilitated water to the two blocks of one-family houses that made up, and still make up, the whole area between the Mistral, Enrique Navarro, Hermanos Villalonga and Vicente Zaragoz\u00e1 streets. They were built by the same company.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, other residents associate the existence of these one-family houses, and along with them the water tower, with housing constructed by the Valencian Tram and Railway Company (la Compa\u00f1\u00eda de Tranv\u00edas y Ferrocarriles de Valencia) between 1920 and 1928 for their employees.<\/p>\n<p>This tram and railway company was created in 1917 as a result of the merger of the Sociedad Valenciana de Tranv\u00edas and the Compagnie G\u00e9nerale des Tramways de Valence (Espagne) Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Lyonnaise. The company was in charge of urban transport in Valencia and was popularly known as la Lionesa (demonym for the locals from Lyon) because of its problems with the payment of taxes, since it was a foreign company.<\/p>\n<p>The new company (quickly renamed in Valencian cacaus, tramussos, faves i vi, for its initials, but these words mean peanuts, lupins, beans and wine) ran the narrow gauge railway of the city of Valencia during forty-seven years. In 1924 it absorbed another company (la Sociedad de carbones minerales de Dos Aguas y del Ferrocarril del Grao de Valencia a Tur\u00eds). The major improvement that this company brought was the electrification of the railway, begun in 1916 along the line that linked the Pont de Fusta station with the Grao (port). The electrification was finished in 1928 with the line to Liria.<\/p>\n<p>The water tower remains as a witness of the time where the water channelling was not usual. Nowadays, it is another symbol of Benimaclet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-0688d0b0b6ed2f8b057db7a8270206df\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-0688d0b0b6ed2f8b057db7a8270206df{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-0688d0b0b6ed2f8b057db7a8270206df hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_comments_list '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div  class='av-buildercomment av-av_comments_list-56c66b2695468e12d3120bc7169a9873  av-blog-meta-html-info-disabled'><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":341,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[115,109],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1450"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1450"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1450\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2572,"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1450\/revisions\/2572"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/341"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/benimacletconta.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
