The Ennoggera Reservoir, 1901 - A Glimpse into Australia's Water Supply History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1901, providing a rare glimpse of the Ennoggera Reservoir in Brisbane, Queensland. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their work has preserved a significant moment in Australian history. Designed and built by Joseph Brady in 1866, the Enoggera Dam stands proudly on the upper reach of Breakfast Creek (later known as Enoggera Creek). This reservoir played an essential role in supplying water to the growing city of Brisbane during its early years. In this snapshot from "Federated Australia" we witness a solitary rowing boat gracefully gliding across the calm waters of the reservoir. Against a backdrop of lush woodlands and scenic landscapes, this recreational activity showcases how Australians embraced nature for leisure even over a century ago. The photo captures not only the beauty of this geographical feature but also highlights its significance as a tourist attraction. Visitors would flock to experience both its natural splendor and witness firsthand one man's contribution to his country's development. As we admire this historic photograph today, it serves as a reminder that our modern water supply systems have evolved from such humble beginnings. It is through these glimpses into our past that we can appreciate how far we have come while cherishing those who paved the way for progress.
