Description:  Seen above is a fire hydrant dispelling what we all hope is there; water.  A comforting feeling seems to come when we actually see that water does in fact come out of these commonly overlooked pieces of the built environment.  Civil engineers have spent over a century constructing the infrastructure that makes fire hydrants such as this one work.   Today this work continues as civil engineers strive to update our infrastructure to ever increasing standards of excellence.
