Work on Pump Station No. 1 included removal of existing paint, repointing the masonry, repair or replacement of all missing or damaged decorative elements, windows and doors, replacing the slate roof and railings, installing a perimeter drainage system and repainting the building. Included in the project was a new northern terrace, renovation of the existing southern terrace, parking lot and drive and updating the exterior lighting.
The approach of the restoration was to follow the Preservation Briefs from the National Park Service as closely as possible and use the existing historic drawings as reference for the original materials.
