Understanding Shreveport, Louisiana Water Works Steam Pumps - National Landmark
The Shreveport Water Works Museum is located west of Shreveport's downtown, between North Common Avenue and Twelve Mile Bayou, which feeds into the Red River just north of downtown. The complex consists of a group of predominantly brick buildings, which house in them a variety of pumping equipment, dating from 1892 to about 1921. The oldest buildings date to 1887, when the city contracted for the construction of a waterworks facility to replace a combination of cisterns and wells that had become inadequate to meet the city's needs. As the technology for pumping and filtering water changed, either the existing buildings were altered, or new ones built, in many cases leaving some of the older equipment in place. It saw significant changes to the plant in the first decade of the 20th century, and again after the city purchased the plant from its private operator in 1917. The city continued to operate the steam pumps through the 1970s, even as they were becoming obsolete due to advances in electric pumping engines. National Waterworks Landmark

Tracing Shreveport's Growth Through Water -- The McNeill Street Pumping Station
The McNeill plant is typical of waterworks from the turn of the last century that were once common throughout the United States, but which have long since disappeared from the landscape. Through a combination of circumstances, McNeill not only survived intact beyond its era, but actually remained in operation using antique steam-powered machinery dating from the late 1800's and early 1900's. These exceedingly rare examples of bygone technology can not only be found at McNeill, but are still intact in their original historic location and are in an operable configuration thanks to meticulous maintenance by water department personnel before final retirement in 1980. Robert Vogel, former Curator of Heavy Machinery and Civil Engineering at the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of History and Technology, visited McNeill in 1980 and commented at that time that two of the Worthington pumps there may be the sole survivors of their types.
McNeill is historically noteworthy in other areas of early water treatment technology, as well. Water filtration was begun at McNeill in 1890 when fewer than 10% of the nation's water plants were providing filtered water. McNeill adopted reinforced concrete construction for filter tanks only two years after this innovation was first applied at a New Jersey plant. McNeill was even quicker to implement chlorine to disinfect water when Shreveport bought one of the country's first chlorinating machines in 1914, only one year after the first use of liquid chlorine in 1913.
The historic significance of McNeill has been recognized by a number of national organizations. It is on the register of National Historic Sites and is also a National Historic Landmark, the only one in Shreveport or Northwest Louisiana. The American Waterworks Association has designated it an Historic American Water Landmark. In 1999, the American Society of Civil Engineers designated McNeill a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark. The only other facilities accorded this distinction in 1999 were the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.

McNeill Street Pump Station Museum-Bob Griffin's Ark-La-Tex
Take a look at McNeill Street Pumping Station and learn more about both of these. McNeill is a turn-of-the-century (the LAST century, that is) waterworks that was the last known steam-powered water plant in the United States when its steam engines were finally retired in 1980. Follow the links at the top of this page to step through a time warp and see what things were like over a hundred years ago.
From KTBS Bob Griffin's Ark-La-Tex Travel segment. Shreveport, Louisiana - Make Plans to Visit. More information available at McNeillStreet.org
The McNeill Street Pumping Station, located near downtown Shreveport on the banks of Cross Bayou, is Shreveport's original waterworks. The first water plant facilities, including steam-driven pumps, were installed on the site in 1887 as part of the construction of Shreveport's first municipal water system, which was only the second such municipal system in the entire state. Portions of that original installation, along with major additions from the 1899-1921 time frame, continued to operate until 1994, although the steam pumps were finally retired in 1980.
