The Fall River Pump House and Catchment Basin in Rocky Mountain National Park are utility structures which treat water for the Fall River Pass Museum and the Alpine Visitor Center. Built in 1938, the facility was designed by National Park Service landscape architects L. Fletcher and W.G. Hill in the National Park Service Rustic style then favored. The pump house is a simple stone-faced concrete building, built into the hillside. The catchment basin captures a stream behind a small stone-faced concrete dam.[2]
