NEW PUMPING STATION.
Large Building Under CONSTRUCTION
bY q. s. Government.

There is being erected in the Eastern
branch by the United States government
large building, which will be used as a
pumping station for the purpose of sup
plying the eighteen big boilers Of the
congressional power plant with water.
To supply the boilers with water from
the city service would cripple the water
supply on Capitol Hill, and the new
pumping station will take the water
from the branch and force it through a
thirty-six-inch main to the big power
house.
The pumping station is constructed on
pile foundation over the water, but
a cement foundation is to be constructed
about the piles, giving the new building
a firm base for the heavy engines, boilers
and pumps to be placed in it:
