[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The volume of the water tower can be calculated using the formula for the volume of a cylinder: V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

Given that the width of the water tower is 16 meters (which is equal to the diameter), the radius (r) would be half of that, so r = 8 meters.

Now we can plug in the values:
V = 3.14 x (8)^2 x 25
V = 3.14 x 64 x 25
V = 5024 cubic meters

Therefore, the volume of the water tower is 5,024 cubic meters.
