Kalamazoo

Since August 2009, there is a 1 mile stretch of the river that is closed for dredging, and this dam is within it. The river is closed from D avenue to the Bridge Street bridge until about October 2010. Also, it should be noted that the provided picture is of a different dam, located downtown, easily found downstream of the Main Street bridge. The former Plainwell #2 dam is much wider, about triple the length, with 2 chutes at river right and a large but shallow ledge the rest of the length.
