In the early 1900s, thousands visited this artesian well to drink its mineral water, which was believed to cure stomach, liver, and kidney ailments. The well and the adjacent Water Plant, built in 1885, were part of the fifty-four acre Lancaster Park, which also included a zoo, a large goldfish and lily pond, a bandstand, a children's playground, and Johnny's popcorn stand.
