Chicago Avenue Pumping Station
The Chicago Avenue Pumping Station is a municipal pumping station which provides the city of Chicago, Illinois, with fresh water from Lake Michigan. Built in 1869 by architect William W. Boyington, it stands on the east side of Michigan Avenue opposite the Chicago Water Tower.
In 1918, when Pine Street was widened, the plans were altered in order to give the water tower and pumping station a featured location.
