Houston Waterworks facility @ 27 Artesian Place

Undated photo of Houston Water works from the opposite bank of the Buffalo Bayou
Snipping of a 1896 Sanborn map showing the old Houston Waterworks.

I marked the approximate location of the photographer.
Today, part of the Aquarium stands where the old Waterworks facility stood.

I also marked the approximate location of the photographer. Keep in mind, Buffalo Bayou took a sharper turn near this area at the time.

The present-day Houston Waterworks facility is now located further west near Sabine Street. Once I get the chance, I am going to venture down there and take a photo from the photographer’s location. I will make sure to update this post when I do.
