Manistique Pumping Station
Manistique Pumping Station, Historical pumping station in Manistique, Michigan, US
The octagonal red brick tower with limestone trim stands 137 feet high and features a copper-domed roof with decorative frieze near the top.
The pumping station, completed in 1922, replaced an inadequate water system and contained a 200,000-gallon steel tank to supply water to the growing city.
The Schoolcraft Historical Society maintains the building as the Schoolcraft County Museum, preserving the industrial heritage of the local water infrastructure.
Located on Deer Street, the structure includes 16 interior sides for enhanced support and measures 38 feet wide on the exterior walls.
The engineering design incorporated an internal steel water tank measuring 30 feet in diameter and 44 feet in height within the architectural shell.
