Owen Sound Water Filtration 1910
Perhaps the last water filtration plant of it’s kind left in Ontario, decommissioned in 1969. Water from the Syndham River filled this room and flowed through the floor filter which consisted of deep layers of sand and gravel. Water travelled gravity fed to the people of Owen Sound.
HDR: This was a very dark room, somewhat cave like with a single construction light… these images are the result of combining several images by stacking layers and combining the best exposures from each image into one.
