The Great Stink of 1858, which was caused by the overwhelming smell of untreated sewage in the River Thames, was largely addressed by civil engineer Joseph Bazalgette. He designed an extensive sewer system that redirected waste away from the river, significantly improving sanitation in London. His innovative approach not only alleviated the odor but also transformed public health and urban infrastructure in the city.
