Situated amidst the picturesque landscape of Valhalla, New York, the Kensico Dam stands as a remarkable testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. Completed in 1917, this monumental masonry marvel spans the Kensico Reservoir, playing a vital role in the New York City water supply system. Towering over 300 feet high and stretching more than 1,800 feet long, the dam serves as a vital barrier, holding back immense volumes of water to ensure a steady flow to millions of urban dwellers. Its construction was a Herculean effort, involving the labor of thousands and the use of over 1.2 million cubic yards of stone and concrete. Today, the Kensico Dam not only fulfills its primary function but also stands as a symbol of human achievement, drawing visitors from all corners to admire its majestic presence and historical significance.
