After several months of delays, the Baltimore Sun reported on August 6, 1915 that the Lake Montebello plant in Northeast Baltimore had begun filtering water for public consumption. The Hughes Company photos, taken July 12, 1915, show the brand new facilities just a few weeks before full-scale operations began. These images show the beauty of the plant's interior and exterior architectural features.
