Subject: Safe Harbor Water Power Corp. Power Plant and Dam,
Near York, PA Condition: Excellent (See scans) Back side: Divided Circulated: No Year: Ca. 1930 Publisher: C. T. American Art "The Safe Harbor Dam (also Safe Harbor Hydroelectric Station) is a concrete gravity dam on the lower Susquehanna River with an associated hydroelectric power station. It is the most northerly and last of three Great Depression-era public electrification projects' hydroelectric dams and was constructed between 1 April 1930 and 7 December 1931. It created a long and relatively shallow lake along the upper stretch of the Conejohela Valley known as Lake Clarke. The creation of the lake shrank the upper Conejohela Flats in size."
