Afin de résoudre des problèmes de insalubrité de l'eau, la ville de Saint-Hyacinthe entame la construction d'un réservoir neuf sur un terrain situé encore plus en amont de la rivière. Cet édifice, que l'on peut toujours voir aujourd'hui est inauguré en 1897. La partie centrale supporte une corniche crénelée et l'entrée est soulignée par une avance verticales couronnées d'une toiture décorative en pavillon.
