Summary
Significance: Numerous city-wide utilities were initiated or substantially improved in Dubuque during the late 1880s. These included installation of telephone and electrical service, extensive street paving, completion of the high bridge over the Mississippi River for vehicular traffic, construction of inclined railways on the bluff, construction of an electric inner-urban railway system and extension of the underground sewage and water supply systems. This small pumphouse constitutes a modest component of one of these infrastructural systems.
