The city hasbeen laced with great pipes, connected with a reservoir on TwinPeaks that liolds ten million gallons of water, at an elevation of760 feet. The pipes have been laid in firm ground and every pre-caution has been taken to insure against their damage. There areseventy-two miles of them, and the territory protected amounts to5300 acres— square miles—or 2300 acres more than the speciallyprotected area of the city of New York. The static pressure fromthe Twin Peaks Reservoir is over 300 pounds, which means that,coupled to a proper water tower, streams can be used to protect thetallest buildino-s.
