Writer, linguist and politician Jacob van Lennep founded Amsterdam's first city water supply service in 1851, for which he received, finally, his own monument. Cool tribute.

Jacob van Lennep created the first waterworks company in the Netherlands. It supplied Dunewater for one cent per bucket of water to citizens in Amsterdam. Back in the days, cholera outbreaks were common and this was percieved as a vital public health service. The company was created in 1851 and transported water 23 kilometers.
