Geist and Morse reservoirs history

<p dir="ltr">For a deep dive into the histories of <strong><a href="https://geistmarina.com/">Geist Reservoir</a></strong> and <strong><a href= "https://morsemarina.com/">Morse Reservoir, </a></strong>which supply much of the water for residents of the greater Indianapolis area, <strong>Hoosier History Live</strong> will plunge into several questions. Were you aware that a historic village called <a href= "https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/indiana/germantown-in/"><strong>Germantown</strong></a>, which was founded during the 1830s and flourished for more than 100 years, was subsumed to create Geist?</p> <p dir="ltr">Do some of Germantown’s structures, which included houses, a post office and a mill, remain underwater in the reservoir located in northeastern Marion County and southern Hamilton County? Geist Reservoir was created in the 1940s, although the Indianapolis Water Company began a push to develop it more than 20 years earlier.</p>
