Waupaca River Bridge, Water Works Station No. 1, 129 Water St Waupaca, Waupaca County, WI
Waterworks Station No. 1 represents Waupaca`s first efforts to provide its growing population with a municipal water system. After several false starts, construction on the building began in 1897. Put into service later that year, the station met the city`s needs until 1908 when an additional station was built. Station No. 1 remained in service until about 1934, and is significant as a manifestation of the city`s early commitment to provide its citizens with a first-rate, municipal water system.
