One of the last of its kind surviving intact in the United States, Reservoir 3 on Summit Avenue was built between 1851-74 as part of an extensive water works system that provided fresh drinking water to an expanding Jersey City, Hoboken, Bayonne, and a busy immigration station known as Ellis Island (first bucket by bucket and later via underground conduits). The design of the structure's massive perimeter walls indicates influences of the Egyptian-Revival Style while its two pump houses are characterized by Romanesque-Revival features. Reservoir 3, emptied and unused, is now home to an emerging ecosystem, wetlands, and wildlife sanctuary. |
