This dam resulted from a lawsuit filed by Lake View Cemetery's board of trustees to suspend further expansion of Cleveland Heights's and University Heights's sewer system out of concern for worsening flooding that accompanied flash flood events. In 1975, a court ordered the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District to construct a large dam on Dugway Brook. In this construction view, the Garfield Monument stands in the distance. | Date: 1977 | Source: Cleveland Memory Project, Cleveland State University Library Special CollectionsDownload Original File
