Black and white image of wooden forms being constructed across a dry river bed

Builders used coffer dams to redirect the flow of water so they could pour concrete molds. A unique feature of the Lake Walk dam was the walkway that went through the length of the dam. Construction on the Lake Walk Hydro Plant was completed in May of 1929. After the construction of Lake Walk, housing was established for Central Power & Light employees on the west bank of the Devils River overlooking the dam.
