Visitor Center

Picture: Visitor center entrance and parking

The parking garage and entrance to the visitor center. Note the decorative railings along the upper walkways. There is a real feeling of pride of achievement here, often expressed in subtle touches.

Picture: visitor center and overlook

Part of the visitor center overlooks the dam on the downstream side of the dam.

Picture: monument at visitor center

A pair of these statues stands outside the visitor center, beside the highway across the dam. Much of the dam has a subtle, art deco feel, something one would not expect for a government project.
