The Atlanta Water Works Hemphill Avenue Station was started in 1892 and was the second waterworks complex erected for the city following a decision by the city fathers to enlarge the then extant system. It also stands as a good example of the late Victorian architectural style as applied to an industrial complex. - Local Identifier:
