Cuyahoga Slackwater Dam Built for the Pennsylvania and Ohio Canal, this dam is now a fountain 0:05 . The Main Street Viaduct (also 0:05 ) over the Cuyahoga River behind the dam was built in 1875. The dam is 1840s. The lock ruin on the right of the dam, between the dam and tracks (also 0:05 ), was re-installed at river base to drain the slackwater reservoir behind the dam. This was done to improve the health of this very sick river. The canal boats ran the slackwater pool in the river behind the dam. No canal was dug here, just a towpath by the river backed up by the dam. CSX runs on this towpath, 1:09 , right of the slackwater pool area, from the lock upstream. Brady's leap was dynamited to allow unobstructed passage by the canal boats in the slackwater pool. Downstream from the lock (lock seen at 0:35 ) CSX, 1:00 , is on top of the canal prism, west thru Plum Creek Aqueduct toward the village of Munroe Falls. The display of American made bras is vender work displayed during an art show in Kent the day I was there. The city was mobbed. Stands everywhere. People looking and buying everywhere. If I knew this I would not be there with my camera. I'd hawk my train DVDs instead of filming.
