This video is about the beautiful building of R. C. Harris Water Treatment Plant which is located in beaches area of Toronto. Beginning its operations in 1941, it is the largest water treatment plant in Toronto and produces approximately 30% of Toronto's drinking water. The plant has a capacity to produce up to 950 million litres of water on a daily basis. The building, unlike most modern engineering structures, was also created to make an architectural statement. Fashioned in the Art Deco style, the cathedral-like structure remains one of Toronto's most admired buildings. The interiors are just as opulent with marble entryways and vast halls filled with pools of water and filtration equipment. The plant has thus earned the nickname "The Palace of Purification".
The plant is also a national historic civil engineering site, designated historical building and has been featured in many films, fashion and TV shoots. Some of the more popular recent appearances of this building were in The Expanse and Mayor of Kingstown. Despite some concerns of vulnerability to an attack on the water supply, the grounds around the plant remain open to public access.
