TYPICAL SECTION OF CANAL, WITH LATERAL GATES AT LEFT, VIEW TO SOUTHWEST. - High Line Canal, Mouth of South Platte River to confluence with Second Creek, Denver, Denver County,

From the Historic American Engineering Record's survey of High Line Canal, at Denver. The photographer's own caption is the title above.

Shows: High Line Canal as the survey found it, in the frame the survey chose.

What this does not let you conclude: The structure's present condition, or how much water it carries today; the record beside it carries the numbers. HAER surveyed what was standing, not what was decreed. HAER's compilation date; the photograph itself is undated in the record.
