Not sure what this is. Went inside and found nothing but a brick frame. It's beautiful and the masonry is awesome but couldn't find any history, number and/or any other information about this property.

The Waterworks pump house was built in 1904 on the lakeshore between Whitby Harbour and Heydenshore Park. An additional pump house was built o the east of this building in 1959. The original building ceased to be used when a third pump house was completed in 1978. Courtesy of Whitby Public Library site.

This has been around for a very long time. I used to bike by it in the early 2000's

The Work Department (Whitby Water Supply Plant) is next door. Didn't see any intakes so didn't want to assume.

I am using logic--was this the old water plant? the new one is nearby

Call the city hall, I'd think that someone there can tell you what it originally was. Probably a plant of some sort.
