Description
The Works Progress Administration built culverts at the intersection of 10th Street and Dobbs Road in Harrah, in 1939.
Contributor note: “These two culverts carry water run-off east-west under Dobbs Road, on each side of 10th Street. The culverts were built by the WPA in 1939.
The culvert on the north side of 10th Street is approximately 2 ft. high and 3 ft. wide; the culvert on the south is 2 ft. high and 4 ft. wide. Though partially filled with sand and dirt, they appear to be handling the water flow satisfactorily. On the curbing of each culvert end, a WPA stamp reads 1939.”
