EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1910 and 1920, showcases the Huron River dam in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The dam, a significant engineering feat of the time, was constructed to provide hydroelectric power and water for the growing city. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1910s and 1920s in America. Ann Arbor, located in Washtenaw County, Michigan, was a burgeoning community during this era. The dam, a testament to the region's industrial growth, was a source of pride for the residents. The photograph, taken from an elevated vantage point, provides a stunning view of the dam and the river, with the surrounding landscape showcasing the natural beauty of the area. The dam bridge, a structural marvel, spans the width of the river, connecting the two banks. The dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in image captures the intricate details of the dam's architecture, from the masonry work to the metal grates. The photograph also reveals the people of the time, who are visible in the foreground, adding a human element to the scene. This photograph is a valuable addition to the heritage of Ann Arbor and Michigan, and the United States as a whole. It offers a unique perspective into the past, showcasing the country's industrial growth and the role that dams played in providing essential resources to communities. The Library of Congress, a national treasure, houses this photograph, ensuring that it will be preserved for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
