High Pumping Station, Pumping station in Jerome Park, The Bronx, US.
The High Pumping Station stands as a rectangular red brick building with a steeply pitched slate covered gable roof along Jerome Avenue.
Built between 1901 and 1906 under architect George W. Birdsall's direction, this station formed part of the Jerome Park Reservoir complex.
The station embodies Romanesque Revival architecture with arched windows and shallow brick buttresses, reflecting early 20th-century industrial design principles.
The New York City Department of Environmental Protection maintains this facility, which supplied water to upper floors of multi-story buildings.
The structure spans 2 acres and features original mechanical equipment that demonstrates early water distribution engineering methods.
