The Metropolitan Waterworks Museum is a nonprofit institution in Boston dedicated to preserving and interpreting the city’s historic waterworks and the buildings that supplied public water. It presents exhibitions and educational programs on engineering, architecture, social history, and public health. The museum sits on the site of the original Chestnut Hill Reservoir and pumping station in a building dating to the late 1880s, including the Great Engines Hall with three historic steam-powered pumping engines and a two-story glass-enclosed pavilion housing the Overlook Gallery. As a small nonprofit, it serves visitors with an interest in municipal engineering heritage and urban infrastructure. It is accessible by public transit in Boston, with Green Line C and D trains and several bus routes, and it offers limited parking.
