Frank Harold Shaw (1882 – May 14, 1950) was an American civil engineer notable for designing bridges and water supply infrastructure in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Two water towers that he designed, affectionately named "George and Martha" by local residents, were landmarks on the Lancaster skyline until their demolition in 1996.
