New Pump-House, Historic pumping station in Byrd Park, Richmond, United States.
The New Pump-House features granite architecture with Gothic Revival elements, including steeply pitched roofs, projecting gables, and lancet windows.
Built between 1881 and 1883, the New Pump-House served as Richmond's primary waterworks facility for over forty years under engineer Wilfred Cutshaw's supervision.
The second floor contained a public ballroom where Richmond's residents gathered for social events during the early twentieth century.
Located at 1708 Pump House Drive, the facility spans two acres and will undergo a 2.2 million dollar stabilization project with roof replacement.
The structure incorporates a three-part layout with an L-shaped annex added in 1905 and includes the 1924 Beaux Arts style Hydro Electric Pumping Station.
