Description
The WPA worked to improve the water supply of the town of Stoughton, Mass. Muddy Pond is located within neighboring Canton.
“The Muddy Pond projects which has been going on now for over a year to improve the town’s water supply has just received an additional $17,500 from the Federal Government for the completion of the task, which may be complete sometime in December [1939]. There are approximately 40 men at work on that project.”
Aerial imagery suggests that Muddy Pond may effectively no longer exist.
