Col. F.G. Ward Pumping Station

Completed in 1916, it was the largest municiple water pumping plant in America. Located adjacent to LaSalle Park, it still presents an impressive appearance, although it has lost something of it's symmetry with the dismantling of it's two tall smoke stacks.

after many an afternoon of playing in the park,we would go into the pumping station for a refreshing drink of cold cold water...that was before pearl harbor incident,after which the building was no longer accessable...
