Description

Photograph of an exterior view of the ivy-covered Corona Water Works building, ca.1900. The building is a large rectangular structure with gently sloped roof. There are three arch-shaped windows on the side wall at right, and two similar windows flank a double door on the front at left. There is a high circular window above the double doors. The light-colored walls of the water works are covered in ivy, and there are two large chimneys sticking out of the roof. The building is on a low hill, and a dirt road runs along the base of the hill in the foreground at left.
