Photo Album -- 2011:
Here are some photos of the recent dam reconstruction project and what it looks like today. The State of Connecticut did a GREAT job, resulting in a modern dam that is faithful to its history
|
The dam as seen from Lower Road |
The Hercules turbine, recovered as part of this project and soon to be displayed in a kiosk near its original location |
The dam as it now appears |
The penstocks, seen from the top of the dam. There's now a usable control mechanism for these. |

A closer view of the dam |
Among the improvements was an auxiliary spillway on the south end of the dam. Here's a telephoto view of it. |
Backing up a little from the previous picture. |
An interested visitor! |
