Redirect for the Fairmount Water Works Dam[edit]

Right now the Fairmount Water Works Dam is only a brief paragraph in the Fairmount Water Works article. I am adding this redirect, and placing it in the List of crossings of the Schuylkill River as preparation for a possible separate article just about the dam itself. There were two dams, and there are more details available about the current dam, issues about fish, and other information which could be included. The date of 1928 may not be accurate.

Although repairs and additions to Fairmount Dam have been undertaken in the years since its construction in 1819-1821, the original cribs have remained as placed, with the added support constructions before and behind.
