A Tour of the Water Purification Facility
This is a detail of the wall map of the Cambridge Watershed that is
on display in the second floor corridor of the Walter J. Sullivan Water
Purification Facility. The darkened area is the city of Cambridge, with
every street and building included. Fresh Pond is visible at the western
boundary of the city. The map includes the two Cambridge Reserviors
located in Lexington, Lincoln, Waltham, and Weston.
Tim MacDonald, Manager of Water Operations, began the program using
this map to give participants an overall view of the Cambridge watershed.
