English: Landscape view looking from the west bank of the Schuylkill River showing the Fairmount Water Works. Shows the old engine house; old mill house; new mill house (completed 1862); and the observatory tower arch (built 1860), stand pipe (built 1852), and pavilion on Reservoir Hill. Also includes the Schuylkill Canal lock, the Wire Suspension Bridge at Fairmount, and the dome of the Cathedral Basilica of SS. Peter and Paul. The waterworks, originally built between 1812 and 1822 after the designs of Frederick Graff, were altered and expanded after the designs of Henry P.M. Birkinbine and Frederick Graff, Jr.
