From 1851 to 1952, the City of Kingston Water Works didn’t just pump water—it transformed daily life for Kingston’s residents. Behind the machinery were the engineers, labourers, and families whose lives were shaped by this essential service. Discover the PumpHouse's social history with Miranda Riley, and learn how water innovation and resilience shaped Kingston.
