The Construction of Gravity Sand Filters at Nyack, N. Y.
The Village of Nyack is situated on the west bank of the Hudson River, about 28 miles from New York City. The Villages of South Nyack and Upper Nyack adjoin it on either side, and are supplied by it with water. The combined population is about 8 000. These villages were originally supplied from springs by gravity, but in 1884. the company then owning the works found it necessary to increase this supply by pumping from Hackensack Creek, the present source of four-fifths of the supply.
