WATER COMPANY ON ELK RIVER 1907
The water company sat on Keystone Drive just before Twilight Drive, from the beginning right up until the 1970s. It was then moved down river about a mile where it sits today. There was little room for expansion at the old plant due to the railroad tracks and hillside. Plus, by simply building another larger, more modern plant, there was no water disruption in the changeover. This old plant's property sat adjoining the Phaff & Smith Cement and Gravel Co. In the photo below, you will see building material stored on the left side today.
