Summary

Description
English: View looking north from the south garden, adorned with trees and benches, at the Fairmount Water Works on the Schuylkill River. Shows men, including an African American with a broom, possibly a groundskeeper, and two park guards on the promenade leading to the inclined walkway on Reservoir Hill. The guards converse in front of the "Diana" statue at the base of the walkway. The waterworks, originally built between 1812 and 1822 after the designs of Philadelphia engineer Frederick Graff, were altered and expanded until 1872. The south garden was laid out in the 1830s. ca. 1875. P.9260.51
