This so-called 'new' water intake, the first one was in Lesnaya harbor. Fresh (not salt) water from the Neva river stream was get to cast iron pipes to above mentioned pool at the Water Tower. During WW2 there was 85 mm. anti-aircraft gun upon it. Currently it is not used and conserved (ie, can be put in action in the case of military necessity).
