Description
A photo take of the Harrison-Dever Intake Crib, one of the cribs that supply fresh water to the city of Chicago, Illinois. The cribs intake fresh water miles off-shore in Lake Michigan and it is piped to the water treatment plant in the city.
The photo is actually of two cribs. The older one was called the Carter Harrison Crib and the newer part is William E. Dever Crib. It is still known to many people in Chicago as the Two Mile Crib because it is located two miles offshore from the City of Chicago.
