Centennial history of the Catskill water supply system, from 1897 to the end of 1915. On December 27, 1915, drinking water was supplied from the watershed surrounding the Ashokan Reservoir to portions of the Bronx, marking the first time that the system was employed for residential use. All five boroughs would eventually receive this water in 1917.
