Today’s Solution to an Age-Old Problem: Inside the 1940 Patapsco Wastewater Treatment Plant

Patapsco Waste Water Treatment Plant 3501 Asiatic Ave., Baltimore, MD, United States

In the wake of the Great 1904 Fire, Baltimore had two pressing tasks: rebuild downtown and get on board with other European and American cities in developing a functioning sewage system. Luckily, Baltimoreans 100 years ago accomplished both. Join us as we tour the 1940 Patapsco Wastewater Treatment Plant that has its roots in the Great Fire and today uses state-of-the-art technology to handle a problem as old as the city itself.
