Description: This municipal water works pump station house at the southwest corner of Harris Avenue and Forest Avenue in Norwood, Ohio pumped artesian well water to a hilltop water tower on Indian Mound. The pump house was built in 1894, the same year this photo was taken. It's likely the pump house was not fully completed at the time this photograph was taken as it appears the chimney and portions of the roof were sketched by the photographer or publisher.
