Murphy Windmill, sitting on the western edge of Golden Gate Park, was completed in 1908 to pump groundwater for park irrigation. At one point in its history, it pumped 40,000 gallons of water per hour but fell into disrepair after electric pumps replaced its function in 1913. Restoration efforts began in 2002, and the windmill reopened in 2012. Designated a San Francisco landmark in 2000, the windmill occasionally revolves and is accompanied by a beautiful, seasonal flower garden nearby.
