This 4 1/2 inch fire hydrant was made by the Kennedy Valve Company, located on East Water Street in Elmira, New York.  The company originated in 1877 with Daniel Kennedy at a location on Gold Street in lower Manhattan in New York City.  They moved to Coxsackie, New York in 1890, and then to Elmira in 1907 where it continues to this day.  This model is the AWWA with a 200 GWP capacity.
