These control panels monitored the Curtis Steam Turbines installed in 1906 and 1907. Although the turbines were state-of-the art for their time, the technology was advancing so quickly that the plant became outdated within a decade. It was soon relegated to secondary status and was used occasionally through the 1970s during droughts and to meet peak power demand.

Today, the nearly-complete plant is operated as a free museum and is open to the public the second Saturday of every month from 10am-2pm.
Hat, boots & airplanes in Oxbow park.  Also has a play structure, nice grass and a p-patch.

The staff were great, but the room was not 100% clean when we arrived. There was a random gummy bear on the rug, dirt on the floor, and a tissue in the wastebasket.
