Description
A beautiful autumn and foggy morning at Lake Springfield in Springfield Missouri. The sun was raising behind me and the sky was pink and purple. To the left of the photo you'll see a glimpse of Springfield Lake Bridge which is also a Dam. Lake Springfield Park offers 153 acres of rolling parkland, featuring trails, woods, bluffs and more than a mile of shoreline along beautiful Lake Springfield. Lake Springfield is a 318-acre artificial cooling lake located in Springfield, Missouri created for the Jame River Power Plant. It was built by placing a dam on the James River. It now serves as a popular fishing and recreation area. was created in 1957 with the construction of a dam on the James River. The city of Springfield purchased the land before it was submerged. It cost $11.1 million to buy the land and build the dam to create the lake and first two units of the power station. The lake was to be a cooling reservoir for the James River Power plant. Construction on the first two units of the power plant was started in 1957. Three more units were added to the power plant by 1970.
