Quincy Water Company Pumping Station was a historic pumping station at 106 Penn Street in Quincy, Massachusetts.[2] The two-story brick Italianate building was built in 1883 to meet the demand of Quincy's growing population for water. Its use as a pumping station was discontinued in 1899 after Quincy joined with what is now called the MWRA.[3]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1] It has since been demolished.[3]
