it's been 92 years and neither the power company nor the state of Washington have put up plates commemorating those lost during the construction 🤦🏼

That’s what they told people on the tour though. I vividly remember that!

No wait a sec. I grew up going to those laser light shows, and I have always thought that was the true story that they ended up inside that wall… Well.

I mean, instead of the metal drive... they could have just petitioned the Bureau of Reclamation (who "owns" the Dam) for the cost of the metal so the already cast plates could be put onto the dam somewhere.

Stuff like this always makes me question what I have been told. Now I’m wondering if New Seattle was real built on top of old Seattle 🤔

My third grade teacher’s father helped build it. She roller skated through the tunnels as a little girl. 🥰

My freshman class got to take a tour of the dam back in 96. My aunt now lives above the dam. Maybe I should go check it out the next time I visit her.

That’s the neighborhood that I grew up in!!! West Coulee Dam, non rez Coulee or original Coulee!! I loved my childhood there!!! The biggest concrete structure in North America was my playground!! We used to walk across the dam almost everyday in the summer and watch the laser light show!! We had it memorized!! My mom would say “ don’t ruin for the tourists”!!!!

I watched a documentary about this. They said there was no way they’d leave the body in it because it might compromise the structural integrity

My great grandpa fell off the dam (not at full build) and survived. We all still live in the area:)
