• Glasgow Water Company - Glasgow KY
    The Works Progress Administration (WPA) built a water plant in Glasgow, Kentucky. The plant is still in service, producing 800,000 gallons of drinking water per day. The city of Glasgow purchased its water systems from a private operator in May 1937. The city received a grant from WPA totaling $26,000 - $22,000 for labor, the remainder for materials, and preliminary work was underway by August 12, 1937. Among other work, WPA workers crushed 850 cubic yards of stone (1,100 tons) from the city quarry for the water plant.
