Crossness Pumping Station: A Victorian Gem In London, England

The Crossness Pumping Station is a Victorian masterpiece of engineering and architecture, built by Sir Joseph Bazalgette to deal with London‘s sewage. The pumping station opened in 1865 and was operational until the 1950s. To end the “Great Stink” of 1858, London needed a major upgrade to their sewer system. The Crossness Pumping Station was built to more efficiently deal with the waste of the populace, and they added surprisingly lovely ironwork to boot.

Kid? Come on, wake up now… There you are — I thought you rode that torpedo into the great hereafter! I'm in Dionysus Park now … train car's a shambles, leakin' air. Whole damn place is flooded and sealed. But there's a pumpin' station back there in Siren Alley — an' I believe you could jerry-rig it to drain the park out. That'll letcha stroll right inside. Get to those pumps… and hurry.
