"During the year 1872 the foundations of the engine-house, boiler-house, and coal-house were built, and the superstructure was completed the following year, being constructed of granite quarried in the immediate neighborhood, on the lot bought by the city for the pumping station and reservoir.

The engine-house was made large enough for four engines - two for the high-service and two for the low-service - which it was thought the increasing wants of the city would ultimately require."
