How Water Gets To New York City | NYC: Revealed

[@coni-ne5km]

Wonderful video and very informative. I moved from NYC to California in 1970 and one of the things I missed most was NYC water.

[@michaeln6312]

Great documentary but the music is too loud and distracting.

Proud to see a Guyanese working for a vital utility company in the USA

These unassuming icons of the city, along with all those concrete towers across the land are a novelty for me, living in England. We don't have them here, yet can turn on a tap high up in a skyscraper and the water still pours out!

Also, I knew that tunnel boring is one of the most dangerous jobs, but I was shocked to hear that twenty four people lost their lives in the modern day construction of tunnel no. 3.

"Water pumps are the backbone of maintaining water pressure in tall buildings. These pumps, located in the building’s basement or a dedicated pump room, are responsible for elevating the water pressure to ensure it reaches the upper floors. They compensate for the pressure drop caused by the height of the building." - AI/search engine Also, skyscrapers in NY don't have towers on top of them generally either, but some may keep internal tanks perhaps

It gets there walking I think

[@ArsenalGunners89]

In a NY minute

[@markbesse4755]

It’s more modern than that. It’s streaming.

[@evis179]

More like it’s running water

[@advocatesandipanmishra4889]

very much informative video.

[@harmoneyreilly4225]

People may not notice it but everyone is paying for it .

[@xBINARYGODx]

and? if there was no direct water bill, it would just be paid for in tax some other way

[@splashesin8]

This one is probably my favorite so far.

[@supernova8962]

Philly had it's share of water towers,most got old and rotted away and weren't replaced.you could see some from 95 so weak they would fall down if a bird sat on them

[@lowKut]

[@CRiver396]

[@TWOCOWS1]

Ab fab! Thank you.

[@onepcwhiz6847]

I know where the water comes from. I've seen Die Hard 3.

[@mikezappulla4092]

You’ve die hard 3? English is not that hard.

[@DanielHuntedit4life]

How many commercials do you need to show?

[@lloydpancott4987]

If ever fresh clean cool water look soo tempting to drink ,as if I'd just walked out of a desert. That spill way has to be no doubt the best in the world. And that's from a northern brit where rain is never far away,leaves me in Arr. But as for the surrounding rivers and coast, Nothing has changed, more polluted as ever ,toxic,deadly ,but humans and everything else means nothing when it comes to saving a buck or two by corrupt greedy companies and governments.

[@xBINARYGODx]

I guess, but you don't have to go too far to have perfectly swimmable water - and either way, you wouldnt want to drink the river water 200 years ago either

[@Coladudetje]

Is this the place batman hides?

[@dougmorris5625]

As the source of water up state dries up, what about desalination plants to get water from the ocean? Also, has any of those wooden tanks ever ruptured on top of the roof?

[@tracywood6268]

THEY ARE ALL MOST EMPTY FROM RECENT DROUGHTS

[@tracywood6268]

I LIVE BY THE CANNONSVILLE AND PEPACTON = EMPTY~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@xsaxusahx]

First

[@jws1948ja]

I am so depressed.

[@Economist96]

No interest in building water tanks. Bye.

[@Economist96]

So this is a water tank infomercial. Turn off the dopey music.

[@Greg.hernandez87]

The water tastes nasty 14:50 whatever she's doing is not helping the water taste fresh and like actual water.

[@ronsblahblah]

You must be talking about a different city

[@xBINARYGODx]

@@ronsblahblah many people from a certain political slant want to crap on cities like NY for what are very bizarre reasons, or its just a different from of brain damage.
