> I'd figure big cities, like New York, all have had better infrastructure than this since at least the 1950's, when more options for advancing technologies appeared on the table. The NYC sewage system dates back to 1850, with full coverage of the city only being achieved in the early 1900s. New technologies can and are added to the system (water treatment was introduced in the 1940s) - but there has never been a wholesale reconstruction of the sewer system.
