#WachusettDam in Clinton, MA- construction for the dam began in 1897, and was finished in 1906. When completed it was the largest #gravitydam in the world, as well as the largest public water reservoir. . Now the second largest body of water in Massachusetts, it makes up part of the water system of the largest- the #QuabbinReservoir. Areas of West Boylston, Sterling & Clinton were abandoned to make way for the reservoir . One notable structure of these former neighborhoods remain- the #OldStoneChurch which is a short drive away. #massachusetts_igers #newengland_igers (at Wachusett Dam) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEiCtYile2l/?igshid=8an0e99lr6lw
