Scaffolding and screen barrier surround the Washington Aqueduct's Castle Gatehouse, a rare example of architecture based on a government logo, as it undergoes continued restoration and rehabilitation, seen here during a site visit on August 12, 2024. The Castle Gatehouse was built between 1899 and 1901 at the Georgetown Reservoir and still provides shelter for the functional filter screens that prevent debris from further entering the Aqueduct system. The Washington Aqueduct, a division of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District, provides an average of 135 million gallons of potable water per day to residents of Washington, D.C., Arlington County, and Fairfax County through its wholesale customers — and is the only federally owned and operated water utility.
