De Valls Bluff Waterworks

De Valls Bluff Waterworks is a water supply facility with several structures on a small site. It consists of a steel water tower, an aeration chamber, a pump station, and various support buildings.

The facility was built in 1936 by the Pittsburgh-Des Moines Steel Company as part of the Public Works Administration during the Great Depression. It was later added to the National Register and recognizes the infrastructure investments made during that period.

The facility shows how small towns modernized their water supply during the 1930s. It reflects efforts to provide communities with better services during that era.

The site is located at the intersection of Rumbaugh Street and Hazel Street in the town center. The facility is visible from the street and easy to reach.

The facility was added to the National Register in 2007 through a multiple-property submission. This means several related sites were registered together as a group.
