This is a general view of the ceremony inside the new water tunnel in the Bronx borough of New York, March 30, 1932. The firing of a final blast marked the last step in the drilling of the 20-mile city water tunnel built to bring water from the Catskills into the city from the Hillview Reservoir, north of Van Cortlandt Park. Mayor James J. Walker is shown, front, third from left. Near center is Joseph V. Gallagher, Jr., holding flag, grandson of Patrick McGovern, contractor of the project, shown behind the boy.
