This swollen and alternatively fast and slow moving stream runs through the Hudson River town of Beacon. It has a number of falls between the decaying and abandoned factories in the town and the river so its' use to them is not known to me, though it may have been a source of power.
Thanks, David, and thanks for the comment. Yes, there are more, but I'm not as happy with them as I am with this. It's clearly a place to return to again and again.
