Glass Plate Negatives - set 12
A curved dam and a hydro-electric project or something similar, but where?
Emily, one of the librarians at the Village Library of Morris, NY has solved the mystery. The plant is at Triphammer Falls on Fall Creek near Ithaca, NY. Details of the project were reported in 1896 in The Cornell Daily Sun -- see this link.
