Cincinnati Water Works was Ohio’s first Publicly Owned Water System after it was purchased in 1821 from a privately owned water company. The Water Works, with two steam pumps at this site, provided one million gallons of water per day of fresh drinking water. The ruins at this site, part of the Front Street Pumping Station, replaced earlier facilities and operated from 1865 to 1907.
