Description
As viewed from the south, this circa 1927 photograph shows the manicured splendor of grounds surrounding Sacramento's water filtration plant. Utilizing rapid sand filtration, the facility started pumping purified water into city mains on January 1, 1924, and was built on the grounds of what been the temporary city of Boston, north of the Southern Pacific Railroad yards.
