Water & Soccer Ball Filtering Structure, Kinney Dam • 2023 09-24
With your eagle eye you may spot the soccer ball on top of the tower-like structure. Gawd help the whole town if water ever gets high enough to flow into those grates.
Normally, like similar 'Burque dams around town, most runoff when it does occur goes into unassuming channels and culverts you may not even notice around the installation. In fact, notably without trepidation over potential drowning, that's a soccer field at the upper right in the neighboring basin just south of this area.
Location: Kinney Dam, Albuquerque, New Mexico 3:28pm
Albuquerque Mayor Harry Kinney (1974-77 and 1981-1985) played major roles in acquiring for the City the former Elena Gallegos Land Grant acreage where this namesake dam is situated.
