In those days there was’ no water running from | faucets in the.houses; people either arried it from the pumps or bought it from peddlers. And they were very particular about having their water ome from favorite pumps. Some peo |ple thought that the water from the | pump at the corner of Roosevelt and Qhatham Streets was the best in tire | world for maising tea, and were will- jing to pay quite high prices to the peddiers for a quart. Others declared that the water from the pump in| Washington Square had a decidedly better flavor than any other, and | went long distances to get it, al- though there were many pumps scat- tered. here and there nearer to them | At last, however, they realized that pumps were not very sanitary, and |so set about having a city supply of filtered water to be carried into the houses. This was a great innovation, | something quite different from what | they were accustomed to. [t was de- | cided that the water from the Croton watershed was the best in the neigh- borhood, for it drained a region rich in springs and ponds and clear, run- ning brooks. The best engineers in the country worked upon it, design. | ing the brick tunnel! and the beauti- | | ful aqueducts over ravines and rivers. is one of these. | In 1841 the new system was finished. There was an immense celebration | | of the opening of the new water sup- | |ply. Beautiful and fantastic foun- jtains danced in City Hall Park and ve speeches were delivered, were other rejoicings through- y, for the people were giad to welcome the wonderful water that was to be more cleanly and sa as wel more convenient th old-time pumps.
