Reservoir 2
Reservoir 2 is located in the northern portion of the city of New Rochelle along the New Rochelle - Eastchester boundary in Westchester County, New York.[1] Built in 1892, the reservoir is impounded by the "Reservoir 2 dam" on the Hutchinson River. The dam is masonry and of earthen construction, with a height of 25 feet (7.6 m) and a length of 550 feet (170 m). It has a water area of about 18.3 acres (7.4 ha) and a capacity of about 37 million US gallons (140,000 m3). Maximum discharge is 800 cubic feet (23 m3) per second. The reservoir is owned by the City Of New Rochelle.[2]
Reservoir 2 lies approximately one-tenth of a mile (160 m) south of Reservoir 1, Lake Innisfree. The water from this reservoir, and from Reservoir 3, was originally pumped at a pumping station into the mains of the high service system to serve the northern portions of New Rochelle.
