A few people knew the answer to the Mystery View. Here's what we've received, in no alphabetical order:
Daryl Branham - The picture was taken behind the old M & W Mill, looking out over the old Water Plant.
Ofc. Joshua Brockman - Hey Ed , looks like the old Columbia water plant just off Water Works Street.
Sandra Denton - It's locate on Waterworks Road
Donald Hare - This is Water Works Street, behind the hospital. looking toward Lee Stephens shop from the old Columbia Water Plant.
Lewis Jessee - This is on the banks of the mighty Russell Creek. The brick structure and fenced in pond were part of the former Columbia water works. the street comes out at the feed mill near the Fairgrounds and the far end meets the street at Westlake Hospital.
Fredia Melton - Old water plant on Water Works Street in Adair County in Columbia, KY.
Adam Montgomery - The photo is just past the old water treatment plant just off Short Street showing the Stephens Building.
Old Coddger - It was made half way over the hill from M&W Milling to the old Columbia Utilities Water Treatment Plant (the corner of the new pump house in lower right hand corner of pic). The dry tank is the old sludge holding pond. The white fence in the background is MLS property. I guess Columbia would be a little closer than Ozark.
Sharon Pickett - The old water treatment facility on Water Works Street
Chris Reeder - The old Water Treatment Plant? Just a guess
Ron at Mobilty Vans - Looks to be behind Westlake hospital and right behind. the old water plant.
Ed Streeval - It is looking from the old water treatment plant toward Lee Stephens' shop on Water Works Street.
Larry Walker - Location is on the bluff above the old City of Columbia Water Treatment Plant on Waterworks Street looking back toward the woods & hill behind Westlake Regional Hospital in Columbia, Adair Co, KY. Rickie Williams - I think it is Water Works Road, Near the old water treatment plant in Columbia, Adair County, KY Sonny Williams - That is the old waterplant, now in ruins and a eyesore to all. This is on Waterworks Street, Columbia, Ky. Old city waterplant now owened by the county. Russell Creek is on the left of field and cows and building belong to Lee Stephens.
Thanks all. I sure found out a lot more than I knew about the location. -EW
