Dennis DeBruler: That is also a nice view of Lock and Dam #13 on the canal, https://maps.app.goo.gl/VePwxBmsw6uZoig76.

When I first saw Nick's photo, I thought the truss spans were a bridge. But when I noticed there were not any roads on either end, I realized the trusses hold gate controls for a dam.
