The Gate Valve is installled in front of Eversource at 780 N Commercial St, Manchester, NH, USA
This is a gate (or sluice) valve used in pipe lines carrying fluids. During the 1940s, this "Gate Valve was destined for the Public Service of New Hampshire to control canal water to a new steam turbine. The valve was never used because the steam turbine was sent to Russia to support the World War II effort. The turbine never reached Russia because the transport ship sank in the North Sea. Local artists transformed the Gate Valve into a sculpture piece."
