Description:
«Our clean and reliable drinking water is something many New Yorkers take for granted. But for hundreds of years, clean water was not a fact of life for New Yorkers. In 1842, more than 150 years ago, pristine water flowed for the first time from upstate reservoirs into New York City. Today, an amazing system of reservoirs and lakes, aqueducts, tunnels and water mains distributes about 1.3 billion gallons of water daily to nearly 9 million people. Throughout its history, New York City’s ability to provide a reliable source of water for its citizens has allowed it to grow and develop into a great urban center.» NYC. Text. engl.
