  • This is the story of where New York City's water comes from - perhaps the most impressive water system in the world. This video took us over six months to make, but is a project we've been dreaming up since we started Public Opinion. Thanks to the hardworking folks at the DEP for maintaining this incredible system and for giving us an inside look.
    Please leave a comment if you like the video, it really helps!

      The legal weed is grown in the state and shipped to the stores. The illegal weed comes in by people driving to another state and bringing it back.

    Great video as always. Maybe a weird aspect to single out, but I really want to say the color of this video was awesome. Whoever does the color grading does a bang up job. I thought this to myself especially for shots out by the reservoirs with the emerald green trees in the background.

    Grew up in Shokan and on the Ashokan and that entire area. Go back several times a year to visit friends and family. Had a 1902 map of the aqueduct system in my house similar to what the library had but was unfortunately lost to a house fire. It wasn’t the final revision so it was interesting to look at all the changes they made over the next few years. Great video!

      @@publicopinionnyc It concerns me, because I don't think those are regulated as well as the rest of the water supply. They might be in disrepair and birds or rodents (or, heck, a dead body once a few years back) can make their way in there. So if you live in a high rise, your water supply isn't quite up to snuff.

    If the title just started with "How NYC..." this would be more eye catching
    It makes me feel like it's a longer form video/movie and seems like a high lift to watch for youtube
    I only say this because you guys seem to have put so much effort in and why not maximize the eyes on it?
