The top of Kensico Dam offers a great view of the reservoir and surrounding area. It’s impressive to think that this dam has been supplying water to New York City for over 100 years. The structure is large and sturdy, and the paths around it are safe and easy to walk. Below the dam is the plaza, which is open to the public and is reachable from the parking lot. This area is popular, and visitors often take photos, enjoy the view, or walk their dogs. If this spot surprises or inspires you, consider giving it a Favorite Point so more people can enjoy it too.
To log this Virtual:
Take a picture of the plaza FROM THE TOP OF THE DAM!(ex. below) (logs with pictures at the bottom of the dam WILL be deleted) and make sure to include something that shows it is you or your group were there, such as your GPS, phone, or a personal item. If you like this location, leaving a Favorite Point is a great way to show your appreciation for this landmark.
