Pumping Station No. 2 San Francisco Fire Department Auxiliary Water Supply System was built in 1912. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. The listing included a contributing building and three contributing structures.[1]

It is a crucial component of the San Francisco Fire Department Auxiliary Water Supply System, which provided a water-supply system separate from the domestic water supply system.[2]

It was designed by City Engineer Marsden Manson and was built by contractor Caldwell & Co..[2]

The building is in Mission Revival style, and has large windows (about 12 feet (3.7 m) wide and about 20 feet (6.1 m) from sill to top of arch).[2]
